Weber tank scale with pointer

[Steve Hoch]

Does anyone happen to know what size nut fastens the pointer to an older tank scale. Mine is pretty corroded.

Do you have a photo of the scale in question?

 

[Steve Hoch]

Yes, the scale is from a 1998 platinum

Thank you. I guess I probably should have thought of that!

Hi Steve, it looks like a locking nut. You could search this site for more info as some of the folks have restored the old scales

Thanks again. I'll figure it out. I was just trying to save one of those trips to the hardware store where you spend an hour looking for the right size nut, bolt, or screw. I think I already know what size the wing nuts are. The rest of the scale is in decent shape. I just have to paint it.
