What is the name of this piece?

[geoffr]

I'm looking to buy a spare replacement of the item shown in the picture below - what is it's name?
And any idea who sells it?

It allows for a push-pull control cable to go through the hole and be "crimped" by the screw.



thanks!
Geoff.

I can find those all day long for 33C cables, but I'm having a problem locating it for the thin wire choke cable like you've got.

Maybe try an auto parts store.

Google "Choke cable screw" believe it or not...

Tatia,

Thanks for the name - I've found some that are close now.. just need to find one which is long enough to keep the pivot (and cotter pin) I have.

When I was working as an aircraft A&P we used to call them "bug nuts".

So it's a Bowden wire fitting, I think. I looked it up on Google and found this source which appears to have everything related:

Give them a try.

Try "aircraft spruce & specialty" ..they sell homebuilt airplane parts

thanks for the help - I finally found them. It turns out my piece is a modified seastar pivot. See page 229 in their catalog:
