Imperial Valet timer pins

Anyone out there know if Timer Pins for the Imperial Valet are available anywhere? Can anything else be substituted? Any help would be appreciated.

Try an 8/32 machine screw.

Imperial timer pins can be replaced with a 6/32 machine screw. I used nylon thumb screws from Home Depot. They work perfectly.

Thank you for the correction (I knew it was one of those machine screws) Nylon is probably a great choice, in case the replacement is threaded in too deeply.

I chose nylon to eliminate a possible corrossion issue. The original pins seemed to be aluminum.

I have the same problem...in need of extra controller pins for an Imperial Valet Sprinkler system. What did you end up using and did it work? I have found a telephone number for the system but have not been able to get in touch with them yet...it is 1-800-521*4377
