SSL 4064 Channel Screws **SOLVED**
« on: October 05, 2015, 03:03:07 PM »
Does anyone know where to purchase Channel Screws for an SSL 4064? I believe they're called BA screws.

Can't recommend them. They look great, but they are a lot softer then the original ones. I ended up with many messed up screws that were difficult to get out sometimes when removing a channel.

If you don't find another alternative, make sure to never secure them too tight.

The module screws were 4BA x 5/16" pozi countersunk screws which I think were chemically (matt) blackened and not gloss painted. The Bargraph versions were 4BA x 1".

All the older SSL consoles used 6 or 4 BA fixings apart from the some of the frame metalwork which was 6:32 countersunk pozidrive (supadrive?) taptites from memory. The larger fixings in the frame were also BA and the module removal screws were actually 2 BA with a Sifam knob attached!
