--- Quote from: RandyT on May 17, 2005, 04:04:05 pm ---Thanks for the suggestion, but we need to go through steel encapsulated in the rubber, not just the rubber part. --- End quote --- I see where my misunderstanding came from now. Oooops. <Looks Sheepish> So, as you actually have some of these in your hand, is it possible you could push the insert out (say using a block with a hole in it to let the insert pass through, but support the rubber) and then put your own insert in there? Also, I just looked and Lord has a distributor about 5 miles from where I work (give me convienence or give me death). If I want to run out and get a couple of these things, how much should I expect to be paying? |

I thought all their designs that were still in production had been licensed out to Happ? |
