Old screw threads that we used to use to fit a quivertip to an end eye

Will Smith

Senior Member
I'm looking for a couple of the old threaded male fittings that are used to screw a quiver or swing tip into the end eye of a rod. I don't need the whole quiver or swing tip, just the thread part like that pictured below. Has anyone got one (or two) of these lying around you no longer use? Or can anybody tell me where I can find these to buy. PM me if you prefer. Thanks. Will.

Will, or anyone else, any idea what size the thread is ? I'm guessing it's Imperial BSF or BA. Bob may know. Could probably get you a couple knocked up...............
 
Sure I have a couple knocking about - just need to find them.
Think it's 8BA but may be wrong....

Paul can you fix landing nets.:D
 
Hi Will,
How many do you want?
I have 5 quiver tips & a swing tip that I probably wont use again. The swing tip is just connected with rubber tubing & the quivers look like they are fixed with shrink tube.
Best regards,
Bob
 
Thanks for all the kind offers here which are much appreciated.

I need four really. Whoever can find them most easily (perhaps Bob Brookes by the sound of it?) please PM me and I will reply with my postal address etc. before posting back on here to let others know I have what I need.

Once again - thanks to all who have replied. :).
 
Screw adaptors

Hi Will,
I think I have sent you a PM!
Send me your address & I will try & post 4 to you tomorrow.
Best regards,
Bob
 
Hello Bob,

I have returned your PM.

Folks: thanks again for your replies. Not wishing to seem ungrateful to the other offers and only because I don't want to put anybody else to the trouble of looking for their ones I think that Bob and I have got this covered now. :).

All the best,

Will
 
Hi Bob,

Apologies for late reply - very busy at work and been ill last 24hrs :(. They arrived safely on Monday and are absolutely perfect - exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.

Will
