I have a acer c740 chromebook that has a cracked charging jack hoping I can find replacement part for it. Picture attached shows what's left of some number on it I think it's 150726+F4 not sure what the symbol is. The male end end is 3mm od 1.1mm Id if that helps.

As the other commentor said, ebay is a good place to look for such things but don't search the part numbers. Search the model number of your device. Get the model number as specific as possible. Sometimes there'll be a model number printed on the outside or on the box it came in, and that number is like a customer facing model number with a different model number that the manufacturer goes by. Like you'll have a Samsung Note 8 and that sounds like the model, right? But in reality, it's a SM-428Z-J12 or something. That's the model number you want to search. Do some research on your device to get the right one.

Thank you for the advice! Was starting to lose my mind scrolling pages of parts.

Searching for the number hasn't gotten me anywhere neither has searching by the dimensions of the jack. Would like to avoid stealing parts off other systems but as a last resort would consider it.
