    Hi fellas, I was working on my M5? Nulite. The burner cap looked a bit suspect as I went to remove it it crumbled.
    See picture 1C245A56-396D-4A23-A1C5-D4D4018EE5D3.jpeg
    It looks ceramic,? But looks brittle cast?
    I’m spewing. Is there a suitable replacement burner,
    Can anyone help with ideas on what and where I can get one or two 7529A8A2-E3BB-4B0B-9C01-F537CB702906.jpeg
    Thanks fellas

    Can you give me the diameters of:

    1. Inside at the top; and

    2. Outside at the bottom;

    plus the length of the cap.

    I’ll look in my box of odds and ends.


    Cheers

    Tony

    @Tony Press , thank you Tony, I was surprised it just shattered like that, I will measure up the other one when I’m back at my work shop.

    I've not checked but there is a pretty good chance they are the same 1/2" BSB threads as Coleman caps and if so just about any US lamp caps will fit and work. If the size is right then new caps are available from OCP. ::Neil::

    @Tony Press , hi there, thank you for the offer Tony I’ve followed Niels suggestion as I had Coleman lamp parts I had the burner caps cleaned them up and they look the part.
