    Default Where can I get one of these?

    Whilst I was topping up my lathe headstock one of the flip top oil cups flipped itself into another dimension.
    I'm hoping someone can advise me where I get a replacement, preferably without the cost of importing it from the USA.
    The critical measurement (A) is 5mm or 3/16"
    I know Mal has 1/4" cups but they are not a option.


    Thank You Mark

    I think they are called Gits oilers. You might find something here Oil Hole Cups and Covers | GITS Manufacturing
    or here. Oil Cup: Business & Industrial | eBay
