Washers for Panel Switches
I was looking for washers for my panel mounted switched.
FYI for thoese that don't know the switch tread is 15/32-32.

Re: Washers for Panel Switches
It's hard to find something that looks kind of right. I've tried a 12mm washer, but most of what I can find locally is too wide. Thus, I've been using a .486 I.D. face washer(Carling switch) that I get from Watts Tube Audio.

Re: Washers for Panel Switches
they are almost impossible to find.
There are some shim washers out there that are close, but not perfect.
A friend of mine had a few thousand custom made for him and sells them here but not in small quantities:

On a related note, who knows where I could get some isolating sleaves and or washers for a Switchcraft input jack? I'm going to try a multi star ground system.
Re: Washers for Panel Switches
You could try a "dress nut" search for those on Mouser or Digikey.

Switchcraft part numbers are: S1029 for the washer with shoulder and S1028 for it's counterpart without shoulder:

Re: Washers for Panel Switches
That means making the hole in the chassis and front panel bigger (approx 11.4mm, I think) to tet the shoulder washer seated.leadfootdriver wrote:

For less hassle you can try the nylon-bushed Switchcraft jack socket that fits in the same 9.5mm hole as the metal socket that you already have - I think its part number is NL112A.
