Repair to Pressure Hose

Probably a tri point torx.

I want a tiny one. :((

Greetings from Norfolk



I have a Kracher 232 pressure hose, which today started leaking (water) from the area of the pump. Having examined it I cannot determine the type of screw used to hold the two parts of the housing together, it appears to be a three point star formation, but I cannot see far enough into the holes to determine. Can anybody assist, and if it is an 'odd' screw, where can I get an appropriate 'screwdriver'



Many thanks in anticipation.

Many thanks, I have a similar set, not quite so complete The thing is that the 'active' bit of the 'screwdriver' would not reach the screw head - it is deep in a well, which is about 5 mm dia.. This is a mojor part of the problem

I had this problem once and had to weld the driver bit to a short length of steel bar.

Assuming you can undo it, it is unlikely you will be able to get any parts for it.
