Can anyone give me the size of the thread for the boiler filler as shown inside the red circle on the attached pic? I need to source the fibre washer used underneath it, mine broke.

Filler size

Cheers,
Bruce

Use some calipers to measure the diameter of the screw thread. If it measures around 2.8 - 3.0mm it will be M3, if it is bigger it will be the appropriate metric thread. But in my experience fibre washers are sold just using the hole diameter, not the thread.

Get a piece of fibre gasket sheet and knock out your own size.
