Hey all-
I've been hunting for these coloured tips for some knobs for about 6 months now with no luck. I suspect I might just be looking for the wrong name etc, so if anyone has any hints, please let me know!

They are the tips for these knobs

The tops pop off so you can access the screws underneath. I believe this is called a collet knob. I'm looking for some coloured caps (same colours as in the pic) that are about 10mm across. Any leads?

Try Sifam. Otherwise head to ebay and you can buy a whole new set of knobs from one of the chinese electrical giants in similar but not exact colours.

Al... I ordered some collet knobs from Selco products a while back. Check this link for their coloured caps.

Thanks guys. I had tried Sifam, but couldn't find them small enough. 15mm seems to be the standard size.
Ben- that place has them, thanks for the link! I had to send off for a quote, hopefully the order won't be too small (I only need about 4 of each colour...)

Al I think I remember them having a $50 minimum order. Ouch!

I just checked an old email from them and the caps were .28 US cents each.

200 tips later...
Luckily I think I've found a place in the states for DIY jobs that does smaller amounts. Otherwise... I might be the guy to contact if anyone needs spare collet knob caps!
