Title: Does anyone know what this brass sleeve is called? Post by: n2len on April 06, 2014, 07:15:44 PM Would anyone have any idea what this brass fitting part is called?
I need to find a replacement... Thank you... Title: Re: Does anyone know what this brass sleeve is called? Post by: KA2DZT on April 06, 2014, 07:41:57 PM It's a locking bushing. It would help if we knew what it came from. What part?? They are used on tuning caps, pots, and other things.

Thanks.... Sorry I left that out. It is a locking washer to hold the knob on the Load shaft on a Acom 1000 amplifier. Title: Re: Does anyone know what this brass sleeve is called? Post by: WQ9E on April 06, 2014, 07:56:14 PM Quite a bit of European gear has collet type knob mounting.

Thanks Roger, I thought that shape rang a bell but didn't connect the dots. I have a machine shop with at least 100 different type collets.

I remember being confused by the piece of gear I ran into with those knobs :) Earlier this evening I was cleaning up some stuff in the wood shop and the photo reminded me a bit of the adapter collet assembly that fits my Delta 3HP shaper which allows you to use router bits in addition to shaper cutters. But I don't think the requirements for N2LEN's piece are as stringent since he won't be spinning his loading knob at several thousand RPM :) |
