So one of my wife's pans came apart at the handle.
After some investigation, I discovered it was held on by a single pan-head machine screw size #12 and a tpi of 32. It is 3/4" long.
I've further come to find out that this is a REALLY oddball sized screw!
The threads on the pan stripped out but if I can find a slightly LONGER screw (an inch would be great), I'm back in business as I can grab the threads below the ones that stripped out.
Failing to find this screw that near as I can tell DOES NOT EXIST, I am thinking to retap it to something more common like 1/4-28 as it appears that there should be enough meat to cut >60% threads with the current hole/thread size.
So anyone have a 12-32 pan-head machine screw about an inch long laying around?
Spending more than a few dollars to fix this thing isn't worth it even though I did find a tap&die for 12-32...for about $25.
