Default Cassette Pinch Roller

CJB wrote in message
ups.com...
Is there anywhere on the web I can order / purchase small pinch
rollers for a cassette recorder. The one I have now has a depression
due to the autostop not working and the player remaining on for many
hours before I noticed it. I actually need a company in the UK or one
that can ship to the UK. All I need is the roller - not the mounting.
I need a selection so that I can use the best one that fits. Many
thanks - Chris B.


Find a small local industrial rubber supply company.
Ask about cordage of the relevant diameter.
Drill a hole down the centre of a cut piece of this cordage.

local suppliers to me, Hampshire, England
Portmere
Martins
Comrie
Technix

Preferably go in when its quiet and stock up with a range of "O" rings and
they may give you a sample length of cordage, otherwise about 2GBP per
metre.
