I need nylon set screws for
Chimera Frame, Invert Mini, Cyborg, Autococker triggers.

Does anyone have these sizes?
Does anyone know where to order a variety pack?

Thanks for you help. (I have looked around a bit. know a couple sizes. I want to order from someone reputible.)

You can buy a pitch gauge from OSH for around 8.00 or take your screws over there and use theirs.

You need the ones for the trigger stops on Rogue's frames? LMK, I have a bunch.. I forget the exact size - 6/32 I dunno its been a while.

The bad thing about those nylon set screws, sometimes they are a ***** to get out. Very easy to strip out the heads on ones so small.

Sounds worth it!
I have a Chimera frame with the viper blade trigger with no stops.
What do you want?

These are a PITA to find. I think I will surrender and use the nylon tipped set screws.

Thanks all for the help.

Brass should be cheap and brass is softer than anodized aluminum ;)

Sweet. I was referred to this site years ago by BlackVCG for trigger spacers. (to take the side to side slop out) I forgot all about this place.

Thanks for the info. I am wanting to use nylon because nylon should be the lightest weight material.

You could try and make some set screws out of aerogel...
