Set screw needed

[kb0zke]

On our way from The Ranch to Graham Cave one of the set screws on the kitchen faucet ran away. I looked in my junque box but didn't find one small enough, so I asked at a GD dealer near where we were. He referred me to an Ace Hardware, so I went to one and came home with two possible candidates. Turns out that one is too small and the other is too large. On another thread I found a link that eventually led me to a picture of our faucet, and the set screw I need is in that picture. "Please Note: All parts can be purchased through a Grand Design RV dealer near you."

The link is: https://www.granddesignrv.com/owners...s/parts-lookup and I chose our trailer, a 2022 Reflection 315RLTS, then chose the kitchen faucet if anyone wants to see a picture of what I'm looking for. We're looking at a possible factory tour in September, so maybe there is one to be had there. There is also an Ace Hardware store not too far from where I am that has been there forever, so maybe they will have what I'm looking for.

Don't forget that there are metric set screws and American Standard set screws. Not a lot of difference in size, but enough.

Willing to bet it’s metric. If you can’t find a metric set screw, find a metric screw that fits, cut it down to length and cut a slot in the cut end for a screw driver. Good luck.

No experience with this, so not sure it will meet your needs, but a quick Amazon search: https://www.amazon.com/Set-Screws-As...s%2C103&sr=8-5

For $10, may be worth a shot and could be handy to have on hand.

Will a regular screw work in a pinch? I have done that before.

Depends on the application. One of ours was under a cover that turned.

What I have done is go to Harbor freight and pick up one of their packs of various sizes. It’s more expensive than buying an individual one but gives you spares and that comes in handy.

I went to the Ace Hardware down the street with the one screw that was too large. The one that is too small was still in the faucet, so I left it. I told the salesman what the problem was and he immediately knew what I needed. He found the right set screw (metric). I wasn't sure that I had the right size hex wrench, so I bought a set that included the right one. He gave me the set screw for free, and since the cost with the sales tax was a penny over an even dollar amount he dropped the penny.

I've gotten things at that store before, which is why I decided to give them a try.
