Finding a replacement wah part

[iamjackslackof]

Hi all,

I am trying to find a replacement part for my wah and I'm having no luck. Partly because I don't know the exact name for it.

Here's a pic:


It's the plastic piece that holds the two toothed parts together. The one I got in that cheap wah shell kit is too small. I'm not sure if this has a specific name, or if I can get it from a hardware store and not just a wah- or guitar-specific place, but any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks @jimilee ! Of course it's at Banzai, my arch-nemesis of guitar suppliers lol. Bu if tension clutch is the right name for it, then that alone helps me find it elsewhere.

Yessir, that was just the first one I came across.

That thing is actually a cable clamp that some clever person repurposed as a guide to keep the rack gear pushed against the pinion. You can probably find one in your local hardware store.

(Ooooh, look at all of those vintage parts! Carbon comp resistors and TDK inductor)
