Hiya. A quick one here. i've lost one of the nuts for my stuart sea cock water inlet (original fit for my boat's r3m: the standard one I've seen on a few boats, with three bolts through the bilge, and a small lever, with the option to use the engine to pump out the bigle). I'm just not quite sure what I'm after if I go to get a replacement from a shop - 'brass nut which fits a 7/16 spanner' is about as far as I've got.

Thanks!
Ben

I have the Stuart seacock that you have mentioned, so I can measure the thread if that helps or if you are in Australia could arrange for it to be fabricated (without the wings on top) - if you are overseas I presume it would be expensive to post but can give you dimensions. Email me to discuss
