I was wondering if anyone had a place to purchase spare lug screws for the 111n v3, lug width 24mm?

I also read about people converting to springbars and just wanted to get some input on the pro/cons of doing so. Im assuming that standard 24mm springbars should do the trick or maybe even fat springbars...not sure of the fitment of those.

Do you guys also use loctite for the lug screws or is that not neccesary seeing as the tube should help from un-threading?

Thanks in advance for the input.

Go with panatime.com - best fitting springbars for all NoobHfac 44mm Luminor cases in my experience. They were having a 50% off sale on these over past few weeks so I think they might be out of stock ATM but check with the site directly.

I normally switch to spring bars immediately upon delivery of a new PAM - rep threads are not great and soon enough you will be having issues with these screw bars if you change straps 2-3 times a week like I do.

Spring bars are easy and hassle free and it takes a second to change the strap so in my opinion they are the way to go.

I personally never use Locite on Luminor cases as I think the screwbars are secure enough, plus if you do stick with these and apply Locite, you will have to go through a royal pain in the arse when you go for a strap change...and what is a PAM for if you cant change straps? It is half of fun anyways:)

Are they of correct length & diameter? I've had a fair share of springbars from various sources (not from Offshore just ot be clear) and the only ones of correct length & diameter come from Panatime. All others are noticeably shorter and a few mm smaller than screw bards in their diameter, hence looking like crap when installed... one side too short and wobby if you look at the case with them in. Panatime ones are not perfect but much better than the rest I've tried, that's why I recommend them. If your springbars are as good, then great news, an alternative source! Also, will be great if someone actually makes spring bars fro QR system - I hate the rep QR and would have swapped the bards for springbars if anyone bother to make them correctly. Why dont you look into this, Offshore - you wil have the whole PAM reps with QR market to you if you get them well made! :)
