Function
The side plate screws secure the side plate to the J Frame, providing access to the internal action while maintaining frame integrity. The new-style yoke retention design is specific to AirLite Sc models and is not interchangeable with older-style J Frame screw sets. Replace stripped or missing screws with this factory set to restore proper side plate retention.
Compatibility
| Model | Caliber | Frame | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Model 340 | .357 Mag / .38 Spl | J Frame | AirLite Sc — New yoke retention required |
| Model 340PD | .357 Mag / .38 Spl | J Frame | AirLite Sc — New yoke retention required |
| Model 360 | .357 Mag / .38 Spl | J Frame | Verify yoke retention style before ordering |

Important: These screws are designed for the new-style yoke retention system only. Verify your revolver uses the new-style retention before ordering — old and new styles are not interchangeable.
Installation Note
Professional installation by a qualified gunsmith is recommended. Avoid over-torquing side plate screws on scandium/titanium frames.
