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
