    Posted: June-15-2021 at 7:17am
Can anyone perhaps help me with the exact specifications of the screws that connect the wires to the switch? My NSS has been disconnected for as long as I've had the boat, and the screws are gone. I want to reconnect the switch, but am struggling to find the right screws, so may have to order online from somewhere. I assume they're brass, but if anyone can help me with the exact dimensions and thread size etc. that will be hugely appreciated.

Try a # 6-32 screw.

I think Pete fat fingered the keyboard and really meant to type 8-32 Wink,,,,,,,,,,,and they're  1/4 inch long with an internal lockwasher. and the ones that come with the switch  are stainless steel.

Great, thanks Ken. Interesting that they're stainless - I just assumed they would be brass for better electrical conductivity and reasonable corrosion resistance. Seems an awfully small contact area for the wire terminal between the screw head and the threads of the hole.
