Prickers and what they fit

I bought a rough tin for a Primus 210 (no stove). It arrived to-day. In the tin was a Primus branded burner spanner (wrench), Silent burner outer cap, and 8 prickers (a few other parts Non Primus no great value). The prickers came in a packet that states >
Pricker Number 4605, These will fit the following stoves'
No's 0, 1, 1S;R, 5, 5S;R, 10, 25, 50, 51, 53, 54, 71, 210, 510, 516, 601, 609, 622, 628, 632, 637, 640, 701, 732, 735, 741, and 747.
I measure these pricker wires at 0.4mm.
The wire from a wire brush I measure at 0.35mm So there can be no damage done by using this as a pricker.
Now I am looking for an inner ring for a 210 silent burner. Has anyone got one for trade or sale

Prickers

That seems like a pretty thick pricker wire - do they fit modern jets. I think I've had the odd Swedish pricker which seemed oversize. Maybe kerosene has changed and jet diameters have got smaller...

Yep The only modern jets I have is for the anchor stoves. The old new stock prickers I got will fit in these Anchor jets. The new stock prickers for Anchor has a thinner wire than the old Primus prickers.

Open to correction, but I think the 210 is a roarer burner.

Inner ring Optimus 00

I stand corrected. It is the size for an Optimus 00 I want the inner ring for. It is for my Parasene, it will be the same size.
The outer ring came in the box I bought and never thought about it just took it for granted that it was off a 210.

It's true that most 210s are of the roarer type - but some were used with silent burners. I have at least 2 with silent burners and am in fact currently using one of them pretty much full time for cooking in the garden. A lovely stove - one that simply won't under-burn.

Sorry, forgot to mention that the silent burner seems to put out much more heat than the roarer equivalent but I've yet to quantify this.
