C&P PILOT OS

In need of replacement impression screws for my 6.5x10 pilot press. Bottom two platen screws have been broken. They are 13/16 heads, regular thread on the upper half and reverse thread on the bottom with a slight gap in between. Any help would be appreciated.

T&T Press Restoration have provided these for me before. Their replacements were perfect.

I second T&T Restoration. They’re awesome.

Cool. Thanks.

your local hardware store should have something in stock to fit.

I highly doubt that you will find this bolt at your local hardware store, but I’m open to being proven wrong.

We have the impression screws for the O.S. Pilot in stock. Note that the upper screws are shorter than the lower screws. If you need the jam nut we have those as well.
