SW Newt Focuser Securing Screws

[Stephen]

Can any wisend soul tell me what size the standard screws are that hold the focuser to the tube?

I need to get some slightly longer ones.

Thanks!

To answer my own question, today I picked up some Countersunk Machine Screws (4x16mm)

Perfect fit for the SW focuser holes, and the same thread so I can use the black nuts that came with the scope rather than the shiny nuts that came with the screws.

The only down side is they don't have the dome cap cross head, they are flat philips - but I can live with that!

They are approximately 5/6mm longer than the stock ones from the 200P which is the reason I needed them
