I will never buy another RTA or RDA atomizer with tiny grub screws

[Warlock]

Stainless steel grub screws (304 or 316)
Order before 09h00 in the morning ... get them same day free delivery in Gauteng.

Do not use cone point.
Do not use cup point.
Do not use knurled point.
Do not use half dog point.

Use only flat or domed point or cup point that you have filed flat.
Remember the Lefty loosey ... Righty tighty rule.
Use only the short end of the Allen key when tightening.(as a lever)Edit
Do not attempt to harden these grub screws ... you cannot.

When ordering from any reputable nut and bolt place, specify the screw as follows: M3 (this is the size, diameter) x 4 mm (this is the length) S/S (this is the material class) 304 (this is the grade) and then the end condition (flat point)
My Velocity V2 uses M3 grub screws. Others my differ.

All good and well. Thank you for the info, but WHERE do we order this from? Are you sending us on a treasure hunt?

@zadiac From earlier post above.
This is a reputable company in Pretoria, they say that they have these in stock.

Just be wary of the cup points, they tend to cut the wire.

Thanks @Warlock. Unfortunately my eyesight doesn't allow me to read small print that well....lol

Thanks Warlock. Now I know what size to ask for. But I will obviously take a sample with me when I visit my local nut and bolt shop. My Velocity V1 RDA also has screws a bit bigger than the other RDA's.

@Warlock
Was really good meeting you today and thank you so much for the grub screws
This has to be the best vape related item I have received.
I have been searching high and low for these little suckers and finally I have a whole packet full
Time to pull out some of those RTA's that have been gathering dust as their grub screws were stripped

You are most welcome @Blends Of Distinction Was great meeting you as well. And many thanks for the invaluable tips on recipe building and giving me insight to the dedication required to create excellent E-Liquids, not to mention the coil wrapping and wicking lesson
