**\*\*I put this list together because I’ve recently been gathering certain information, and ran into all the following screw sizes on different threads, so I decided to make it all available in one place.

Devin, I’ve got a ton of screws, if I dont have all of them, I think I may be able to point you in the direction of where to get some. I’ll prob bring a trunk full of stuff on Monday, just to give you an idea Sent from my ADR6400L using Ghostbusters Fans on Android ---

Here’s some info I’ve collected on this subject. Also I was thinking about offering full sets for sale pending interest. Prices are still a number crunching game but I’m gonna try to keep it as cheap as possible. Ace sells alot of the stuff needed but the prices are about 50 cents a bolt. I’m hoping for half that price.

I made a socket cap screw run today with mixed results. I went to Lowe’s first and found the 8-32 set of 4 I needed. That was $1.50. They didn’t have the 4-40s or the 10-32s I also wanted, so I went to Home Depot. HD had a wide selection of socket cap screws, but they were stainless steel, which wasn’t what I wanted. The black alloy ones were in a drawer with metric cap screws, so I bought some 5mm x 30mm, which was pretty close to the 10-32s, close enough for me. Two bags of two cost $1.60. No 4-40 socket cap screws at Home Depot either. I’ll look at a hardware store like Ace another time to see if I can find those for my resistors. I got home and found that the [ion arm](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/aluminum-welded-ion-arm) holes weren’t big enough for the 10-32 (or 5mm), so I just subbed in my 8-32s. The holes were predrilled when I bought the part off ebay a long time ago, so I wasn’t shocked. I traded the 5mm screws that were for the ion arm to the Clippard, which worked out fine. Yeah, it’s inaccurate, but way better than the phillips head screws I had there for years in the first place. I also put a pair of 8-32s in the [booster frame](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/booster-frame). (Now that I think about it, I could have been more accurate by putting the 10-32s in the booster frame, which apparently can go either way, and then used the 8-32s in the Clippard. Oh well, too late now and I don’t care.) I already had the right screws in my thrower thanks to irricanian’s kit, and my [ribbon cable clamp](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/ribbon-cable-clamp) also came with the right screws, so those were good as well. Now I just want to get my 4-40s for my ion arm resistors and I might also review my [bumper](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/bumper) screws. If anybody knows a good source for the 4-40s, let us know! ---

Its not easy finding the 4-40 screws. I had to get a set from a member here. ---

We were having a small discussion about the socket cap heads used on the gun-track disks; as to what size was used. I’ve read 8-32 in a lot of places but when we looked at reference pics it appears larger. a 10-32 or maybe even 1/4-20. So whats the consensus on the gun-track disks? Is it: _8-32_, _10-32_, or _1/4-20_ socket cap heads. It was also discussed that it may have varied much like a lot of the hardware but is either a 10-32 or 1/4-20 not a 8-32 Please share your opinions PS Be watching my shop very very soon for all your hardware needs 😉 ---

I think most agree on 8-32 for the [gun track](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/gun-track). Can anyone with great knowledge know if 8-32 was used on the [instrument bar](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/instrument-bar), as well as 6-32? Mine is 8-32, and I’m contemplating whether I should change this little detail on my thrower. ---

The [gun disks](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/uncategorized/gun-disks) used either 8-32’s or else button heads on the stunt throwers. Anything larger is way too big. The [instrument bar](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/instrument-bar) used 6-32. ---

Ok so 8-32 for the gun-track disks seems to be the answer. But can be still open for debate based on some of the reference photos we have been looking at. If it is 8-32 for sure then I would say most throwers used 6-32 for the bottom plate. All the photos I’ve seen the bottom plate screws are smaller. On too the next discrepancy.. 1/4-20 or 10-32 for the [bumper](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/bumper)? Sent from my Motorola MT500 using Ghostbuster Fans on Android 🆒 ---

The Minnesota thrower used 6-32 for the bottom plate. The Sony lobby used 8-32. As as for the [bumper](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/bumper), they’re 1/4-20, methinks. ---

Ace didn’t carry the 4-40s either. The guy there recommended a place called Fastenal, so I went there. They had some, but you had to buy them in bulk, so I have 100 now. Hmm, I wonder if there’s anyone I could share these with… [Next page](https://forum.gbfans.com/t/official-pack-and-thrower-screw-list-gb1/33216.md?page=2)
