Amp Stand Cone Feet

Not sure if this question belongs in this category or forum, but here goes.  

I have two different Billy Bags amp stands  and the cone feet in each stand have screw threads of slightly different sizes.  


I just purchased two used and identical Billy Bags amp stands that fit my amp better but they came without the cone feet (I knew this when I purchased them).  I thought my feet from the other Billy Bigs stands would transfer to the newly purchased stands easily.  Oops was I wrong.  Only one set of four did and the others have screw threads on the cone feet that are slightly too large.

Anyone know where I would look to purchase Billy Bags aluminum cone feet for an amp stand?  I plan on measuring the thread size early next week to ensure if I find a replacement cone foot set, it will screw in the threads.  

Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a bunch. I will definitely do that tomorrow. I am looking for a aluminum satin silver finish cone that is around 1.5 inch diameter base with a 1.5 inch length with a threaded 1/4 -20 screw. I think that is the size that will fit my Billy Bags stand.

Thanks again for the lead on Herbies.

With a little work, your cones could be drilled out and resized to you're required dimensions.
A visit to an auto parts store requesting thread inserts or helicoils might solve you're problem.
Just a thought.
Good luck

I have Herbies titanium Giant Cone/Spike Decoupling Gliders installed under the TAD Evolution One's for 4 days now and VERY VERY happy with the results.   Whatever smearing are removed from floor resonance.   Steve is a good guy to deal with.

Amen with Herbies . If Steve says it I believe it ! 
And I can say that about VERY few in Audio or anyplace else for that matter.

Philb7777,

What was your eventual solution, if any, to your search for proper 1/4-20 isolation cone feet for your Billy Bags racks?  I too have such a need, having somehow misplaced the envelope in which I put my own four feet "for safekeeping!!" during a recent home renovation.  Since Billy Bags is out of business I'm now desperate to find a suitable equivalent or replacement.

Did you eventually get your own need satisfied from some vendor?  Please share.

Thanks.
