Spool Nuts can be easy to lose and hard to replace. On the Lettera 32, you have to remove them every time you replace the ribbon. Over the years, the odds that one or both of these nuts would get lost increased with every ribbon change. They're small. They're round. They can roll. You set them down, change the ribbon and when you look up you discover they've rolled off the desk. Now you can't find them. Now your spools sit loosely on the spindle and the ribbon doesn't feed or reverse properly. What are you to do? You can't just replace it with a regular nut. It will look bad, interfere with the movement and the ribbon spool will loosen it as it spins until it falls off. These Thumb Nuts are shouldered to fit uniformly inside the ribbon spools and to match the threading of the spindle. They stay in place and they hold the spool steady so that it feeds the ribbon properly. They're new and have a nice shine to them. Even if your typewriter still has the original set you might consider buying these just to have spares. Driving a car without a spare tire is inviting trouble. There is never a good time to need a spare and not have one. Click Buy It Now and purchase some peace of mind. Thank you for your consideration.
