You need to post 'to_tsvector('english', part_number)' for the 16 rows
that you think should be returned but aren't.
Fulltext works so that it transforms the source (part_number in this
case) as defined in the text search configuration ('english'), and
compares this with the tsquery.
My bet is that the transformation keeps the whole string ('104/1') in
this case, so that it does not match the tsquery.
ISTM you're trying to do a prefix search on the part_number. In that
case fulltext may not be the right solution, because it's fuzzy by
nature. If you have two-part part numbers (i.e. it's always A/B) then
maybe split that into two fields, and use simple equality conditions on
each field.
So instead of column 'part_number' containing valuye '104/1' use two
columns part_number_a and part_number_b, containing values '104' and
'1', and simple equality queries
WHERE part_number_a = '104' and part_number_b = '1'
or (if you want to match just the first part)
WHERE part_number_a = '104'
Another option is to use an index with a 'varchar_pattern_ops' opclass,
which allows you to do prefix LIKE queries [1]
CREATE INDEX custom_partnum_idx
ON partdetails (part_number varchar_pattern_ops);
SELECT ... FROM partdetails WHERE part_number LIKE '104/%'
