Hi guys,
anybody knows if the nuts on the screw of the third slides of a LA Benge are the same of the Bach ones?

I believe the threads are the same, but the diameter of the nut might be
different due to the distance of the rod from the slide.
I know one of my Benge's has a significantly smaller nut than the Bach.

Yes, the threads are the same, although they don't always fit due to plating differences. Kanstul was making a-rod nuts for their "Chicago" model that are close in appearance. Conn-Selmer discontinued the part years ago.
