Online source for 3.0mm X .35mm tap?

[DVNE]

Hi All,

 

I have tried to install a 7030 Clark tube on my vietnam case and it snapped off inside. I was lucky enough to get the broken piece out but I still need to install a new tube. Can anyone lead me to a online source where I can purchase this? I am local to Ofrei but I can not seem to find it on their website (or I am queuery-ing it wrong)

 

Heck if someone can loan me one I can send it right back. I'll pay for shipping both ways of course...

 

Thanks in advance!

I've got an account with Cousins here in the UK if you need anything parts wise. www.cousinsuk.com Let me know mate

Free advice:

Don't get robbed by a watch parts supply house unless you are in a hurry.

 

Look in the phone directory and see if there is a tool, bolt and screw specialty store in town and call them about the taps.  I bought the taps 5 for $25 from a tool/screw shop.  They were PRO-CUT brand, very good quality.

If I bought 25, they were $4 each.  Five was enough...

 

 

Amazon also has 3.0 x .35mm tap sets for $21.30, free delivery.  "Includes 1 each: Taper, Plug & Bottoming Tap."

Here they are for less than $4 each including delivery:

Here is an explanation of the different types of taps:

'Plug Tap' is usually the type needed.

Thank you all for the links!!!

 

The Amazon one is perfect because I was just gifted a $25 gift card.

 

This is so perfect. Thank you all!!

Any of the known guys in the US, you do know you have brothers in Europe who would be happy to help source any weird metric tools?
