    Those screws are 1/4-20. The nylon is favored because if the motor falls or is impacted, the casting probably won’t break.

    There was a thread on here this past spring about these screws. I bought a bag of ten nylon thumbscrews from Grainger for under $3.00. They aren’t exactly the same as factory, but a respectable replacement.

    Thank you kindly!!! 🙂
