 Where to order screws???

Hello!

I play on Buffet E11 (made in Germany), and few screws in my clarinet oxidised and chop. So, who can tell me, where i can find new screws for my clarinet? Lenght of screw is 6mm (0.6cm) It`s not the same screw as in Buffet clarinets, that was made in France.

Photo of screw is here: http://s44.radikal.ru/i106/1203/f1/5aa6b6cb9da0.jpg

Sorry for my unperfect English!

Thank You!

I'd recommend paying a visit to a local instrument repair person. They may have spare pivot screws in stock or will at least be able to order you a replacement. This should be a standard catalog item for the repair supply companies but they sometimes won't sell to the general public.

The older screws are headless and have a blue plastic blob on them to lock them in place. Schreiber used them on both their clarinets and oboes until they changed over to the Buffet type.

Windcraft in the UK may have some https://www.windcraft.co.uk/

Here's the catalogue number:

The opinions I express are my own.
