    Hello everyone.

    I made a nozzle for a Petromax 834. The nozzle is turned from 9mm hexagon brass and drilled with a nozzle hole 0.16mm. The nozzle also has the classic needle aid, which is missing in today's nozzles from new production.

    Greetings Michael

    It looks good.
    It is nice when you have the ability to make obsolete parts and improve on them.

    The original nozzles for Petromax donut lamps were always made of iron , because the bases of these lamps were made of cast iron.
