I am struggling to find a A/C gas bottle tap round handle, looking for something like in the picture below, this is the wrong size but I cant find anything. Do they have a name? or where might I find one? Square center hole 7.25mm / 0.285"  While I am at it, what is the name for the holes pushed through a panel with a lip as in this picture?
Thanks in advance
Jim

It might be worth paying a visit to your nearest diy centre and looking at the GATE VALVES in the plumbing section. The only problem, if you can find a compatible handle you'll almost certainly need to buy the whole valve that it's attached to. |

Apologies for slow reply.
Brilliant again, thanks MkX and skylinedave, really useful info. Swaged holes was the term I knew I used before.
Yes might have to buy a whole valve but they are not to expensive, now I know how to find them will be easier.
Thanks again really appreciate your help.
