What is this?

[Elpenor]

It’s a grey plastic pin, about 50mm which says F25 on. It feels like it’s part of an ikea or similar pack. But I can’t for the life of me think where it’s come from, and more importantly if it’s missing from anything!


Any help greatly appreciated!

Looks like a plastic bolt for holding in a bed slat

There are two dimples. Are these holes?

I don’t think so, just a slight imprint

Hmm. I don’t have one of them!

Throw it in the bin and you'll no doubt discover what it was for in a week or so.

It's too long and thin for that

Not on any of my bookcases

 

[two sheds]

so all your shelves are staying up?

So far

 

[Elpenor]

I can’t think what it must belong to. I have a lot of flat pack stuff which must use this sort of pin. But I can’t work out what it belongs to

Action Man’s butt plug?

Adjusting butt plug for comfort...

Its a flunket actuator valve adjustment time locator pin that fits in a flux capacitor RF control module



Be careful to replace it else the wrong date and time can be accidentally selected you will need a 3.8 mm F25 flunket fastener series bypass security tab wrench , 240v to 110v inverter and a dual flip cadmium 2879 newtons torque multi meter with a set of compatible 400 amp crocodile clip booster cables from Wickes to do the job correctly at home
Dont forget to unplug it first and replace the circlip using WD40 , silicone thermal paste to the sealing grommit around the heatsink or you may trip your circuit breakers requiring a £300 call out fee from E.O.N with a 14 day wait
Good luck

Ooh, I've got one for this thread.

This is on the wall in the bedroom in my new house, about 5cm square, the key turns but doesn't seem to do anything.

What is it please?

Old burglar alarm control? Had something similar in my old house but it was wired in

Do you know where St Petersburg has gone?

nope. I found it upstairs too

It’s really annoying as I can remember banging them into something with a hammer but exactly what it was escapes me

Does the key come out? It looks like an alarm/call button with a key reset.

I do have a burglar alarm which I cannot use as the previous owner died and I don't have the secret code. It went off a couple of days ago and I had to open it up and wrench out a couple of wires to make it stop.

Eureka!

It’s part of my desk


It’s part 130887

I’ll see if I can reattach it without having to take everything off the desk

and if that doesn’t work it’s a butt plug for my action man

So I may have set the alarm off myself by pressing the pink bit...

The key probably resets the button after it’s been pressed so my guess is it’s a panic alarm.
