Correct.

Beware, though, that stainless steel is also non-ferrous. A precision scale would tell you the difference between titanium and SS.

Hey guys, I picked up some rear arms/hubs/mounts/universals on ebay recently. After dissassembly, I noticed that the hinge pins were not magnetic and felt 'light', also saw that the outer pins had a very light 'goldish' tint to them. Anyone know who...

Not positive, But I would be suprised if all the arms weren't reinforced. The early arms (I thought) were fiberglass reinforced. The later versions were carbon or graphite.

Generally tolerances are tighter, and there is less deformation of the...

I bought a NIP Trinity/Magic titanium hinge pin set from a member here years ago and misplaced the header card.

I'm looking to put them on my re-re racer but don't know what size of drill bit or reamer to use since they're larger than the AE pins....

Last post

Maybe a #29 or #30.

Hey all,

Maybe this could interest some here so I thought it could be usefull to share my DIY custom hinge pins. I was tired off always having to search for the correct hinge pins for custom projects so came up with this idea of doing my own custom length...

You can also use .125 piano wire in a pinch (or whatever diameter $.59 wire your application needs), too.

Great tip.

2 - .124 x 1.017 (Outer Front)
4 -...
