    Default Help me choose inner and outer washers for straight razors

    Hi,
    I will use 2 mm aluminium rod for repinning relatively big razors.

    Can I use fender and flat washers? If yes, which size and which place should I look for? I had a look at the microfasteners:

    Washers - Micro Fasteners

    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Which size will fit a 2 mm rod? I can find rods in milimeters in Turkey.
    Thanks.

    Fractional and Decimal Inch and Metric Conversion Tables

    Googled it, I am not that smart


    For all practical purposes 1/16 = 2mm, means those are the right size

    Hi,
    0.4 mm is not a small gap for pinning imho. Thanks anyway.

    Further advice is also welcome.

    So what size would be good for a 3/32 pin? Trying to get some inner washers for a restore. Trying to keep it PayPal, <.< don't like putting card numbers out there.
    It's just corn syrup... Warm, blood flavored, corn syrup ...

    Divide 2mm by 25.4 = 0.0787".
    You need a washer with 0.079" I.D. That's a #2 in brass. The #1 is just slightly too small @ 0.075"
    Best to ask the supplier (Microfasteners) what the I.D. size is of the stainless if that's your preference. I don't have those on hand.

    Divide 3 by 32 = 0.093" That's the I.D. you need
    JackofDiamonds and gooser like this.
