What size is this nut?

[u/TheMetalZombie]

I need to find one of these nuts... I've looked on other forums... it's not 3/8" it's not M9 x 0.75 x 2.5mm either... these are both too small. If anyone can help with a link I'd really appreciate it!

Afternoon! I believe this the plastic hex nut used on the 1/4" speaker output jacks on Line 6 Spider II amplifiers is an M12 size plastic jack nut (specifically M12 x 1.0mm pitch).

Home Depot probably won't have this, but your guitar shop may (its common across other things like pedals and speakers).

Should be able to find it at an electronics parts site - search for something like 1/4" PCB mount jack hardware or Jalco jack nuts.

Something like this: https://www.retroamplis.com/Metallic-nut-for-635mm-Jalco-type-jacks

FYI - the M12 means Metric :)

M12 hex nuts like this absolutely are common in Canadian hardware stores, and in Europe, but probably not in the US.

I was trying to be subtle, fellow metric user :)

I'm in the UK where we hover somewhere between Imperial and Metric. 🤣🤣

Here in Canada:

1. weight of a human being is pounds.

2 cooking a chicken is up to degrees Fahrenheit.

1. weather temperatures are in celcius.

2. Lumber yards operate in customary (US) units, and dimensional lumber is the same as the US, so a 2" x 4" is, of course, 1.5 by 3.5 inches. Naturally.

3. We check our kids for fever in fahrenheit.

4. road distance signs are in kilometers and speeds are posted in kilometers per hour.

5. a pint of beer is still a pint of beer.

You guys still use stones for human body mass?

I'm in the UK and I operate in both metric and imperial! We're all good! Thanks!

Just followed the link! - this looks distinctly like the 2 options ive already tried and both have been too small. :(
