Rolleicord Vb screws

Anyone who knows where to find the screws holding the bayonet plate I think they have No. 01163.00.0?
Thanks!

These are metric wafer head machine screws 1.7mm coarse thread (0.50 mm pitch). Most screws in this size are fine thread (0.35mm pitch) so it may be difficult to find these as standard parts.

Yes I assumed that. I asked Paepke in Germany, but they don’t sell parts since they need them themselves. I have bought ”parts only” Cords from eBay but it begin to be an expensive way to solve a problem…

Apparently M1.7x0.50 screws are also used to attach the viewfinder to my Rolleicord V. After a considerable amount of time searching online, I was not able to find a single screw in that diameter and pitch, regardless of length or head style.

I do have the correct screws for the Rolleicord Vb if you can't find them in the EU. If you contact me through my website we can continue the conversation.

That was sad news! I wonder if a watchmaker could do this type of screws on a lathe? Worth to asking someone maybe?

Good news, thanks! I will contact you!

I don’t know if this is appropriate, but I’ve created a YouTube channel about the Rolleicord Vb that focuses on restoration, disassembly, assembly, and also a bit about specific accessories such as filters, Rolleinars, and eventually photos taken with the Rolleicord as well.
There are of course English subtitles. I hope some of you can find something useful from these videos:

Service av slutaren i en Rolleicord Vb Idén är att visa hela monteringen av slutaren och sedan monteringen i kameran. Vissa moment kanske inte visas. Fortsättning följer alltså. Det kommer även avsnitt som visar demontering av slutaren. Även andra Rollei-relaterade avsnitt kommer efterhand, som...

Good to know that Bill works on 'Cords. Bill's a top notch guy (formerly of Rhode Island, where else?).

My Vb(ii) is a great camera. I rarely use it since I bought my Blad SWC, but it is wonderful.
