Thanks everyone.

One weird thing is that I cannoty for some reason get to that part#
8992K493 @ McMaster.com "rashid111" mentioned.

If I put that part number into the search function it comes up, but if
I try to navigate to it by going through the options, I cannot get that
same part/page.

It has me wondering what I'm missing. And that is why I said I'm still
trying to navigate that site.

Thanks a lot.
