Yamaha Aluminum Rail

[Jim Keaney]

Hello Technicians. I was working on a Yamaha console this morning,  
replacing three hammer butt  flanges whose string spring catch had  
snapped. When I was replacing one of the hammer butt flanges into the  
aluminum rail, the original screw did not screw in easily. In fact,  
no matter how I tried to insert the screw,  I could not get the  
hammer butt flange to tighten. The screw itself does seem to be  
slightly bent. Do have any experiences with his type of problems with  
aluminum rails?

Thanks
Jim Keaney
