It’s taken a little longer than I had wanted but I have finally got to do a fitting test for the new aluminium 200mm muff coupling. There is a small issue with our selection of bolts but apart from that the form of the casting fits the holes well and it is pretty tight by the time the clamp closes to the PCD required for the Table D configuration.
With that done I now need to make some small alterations to the casting to allow it to come free from the mould as it’s staying stuck on the fixed side when casting. I believe this was due to the cutter flexing (it’s a long cut) when I was making the mould. Sadly this will mean a further delay to being able to start selling these parts but on the bright side it’s not as bad is if there were a part design issue as well.
A side note is that the hoses do have some variation, the one I tested on was from Total Rubber.
