content: Great. I'm glad it worked out. I had a lot of trouble finding it too. I had searched for "handle" "feet" etc. I ended up finding a reference to BENCHKIT in one of my google searches for "keithley handle". Newark came up with 2000-BENCHKIT. Then it took more time to figure out which Keithleys that "kit" worked for.

content: Hello,I got the feet and mounting hears I would like to install in my keithley but no screws.From the kit datasheet I understood for the rear feet uses 6/32x1/4 PFH, but for the hears could not understand exactly.It states #8 screw. What does this means? Looking online I see #8 is 4.2mm diameter, but what about the pitch?We have the metric system in my country and none of the screws in my screw box fits.I just want to make sure I purchase the right screws from the hardware store.Thanks,Jorge

content: My message might be a little bit offtopic, but I have a Keithley 2000 (lower model, similar chassis) and I am missing an opotion slot cover. I am planning to replace it with some kind of diy metal or 3D printed, but i don't know the exact dimensions of the original. Is there someone, who would measure it and post these dimensions for me? Thanks in advance.
