Is it time to replace your rubber

[Craigrrr]

I am replacing the rubber pads that the shell rest on when closed as I have a a couple that are split in half . So it's time for new rubber. I bought a 6" x 6" rubber block of Amazon for 5.00 bucks I think it was a good price. I will include a link to it as well as some pics

Did you get all 4 out of one block? What did you cut it with?

Yes, I got all 4 and I have enough for another. I used a new razor blade in a utility knife, just kept making passes through it.

I guess others must have bought , as the quantity started at 12 left now down to 6 on the amazon site

Guess I looked at the forum too late as I just ordered 4 from the factory for $10.50 each

I bought a sheet of hard rubber from Grainger - very reasonable priced and it made a set plus 2 spares. Cut it with a utility knife.

They doubled the price at Amazon since I bought it. I paid 5.44 but Amazon prices seem to change all the time.

What is the thickness of the rubber bumper pads? As someone else mentioned there are tons to,choose from on Amazon.

Craig's post at the top of this thread says 1/2 inch thick. I bought a piece of the same stuff at the same time, and though I can't get at it at the moment, memory says that's about right.

I must have read this post 4 times last night looking for the thickness. I had thought it was 1/2" but it was late and I just couldn't seem to find it. Guess i should have just gone to bed

Thanks!
