just a quick post to say we have been informed that there may be an issue with part F61613 valve rod.

it would seem that some of these have gone out with a "tight" M8 thread on the end.

it looks like the problem only affects some of the ones we have in stock so Steve suggests that you check this with the M8 nut supplied and contact him if you have a problem.

when we have an idea of the quantities involved we can make some replacements.

I did have this problem but was able to re-cut the tread to the correct size without any problem.

yes, fine to re-thread if your happy to do so  Cool

although the stainless steal can be quite hard. a good condition die should cope, but if anyone has any doubts just contact us.  Cool
