These are the screws that drive the clamping blocks down onto the strings at the locking nut. When one strips — and they do strip, particularly on guitars that get tuned by the nut rather than the fine tuners — the block stops clamping evenly and the guitar will not hold pitch through hard use. This set of three replaces the full complement on one nut in one go.

Before ordering, confirm these screws match your existing Floyd Rose Original locking nut. The nut itself has to fit both the width of your neck at the nut slot and the radius of your fretboard — wrong on either dimension and the outer strings will either sit proud or crowd the edge. Floyd Rose sizes its nuts by width code (R2, R3, R4 and so on). If you are not certain which nut is on the guitar, measure the existing nut rather than guessing from the model name.

The screws are stainless steel. The failure mode on the chrome or plated versions is galling and thread damage at the block interface; stainless resists that better and does not corrode at the contact point the way mild steel can after years of sweat exposure.

If you are not sure this is the right hardware for your guitar, send us the make, model and year and we will check it against what we have on the shelf.
