Grubbster Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 I'm fitting new front wings and BigHead won't supply me a small qty of fasteners any more, minimum order is now 100. I can get some from Hall Fast, but if anyone has a stash and wants to sell me 8 please let me know. I'm after the square ones that use Ty-wraps.

Englishmaninwales Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 You need to talk nicely to Big Head, they sold 20 to me last week! I can spare a few if you are stuck.Malcolm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grubbster Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 Thanks Malcolm, I've got some from EC fibre glass supplies now. It seems BigHead have a new person on the desk, I've bought quite a few in small quantities over the years adn I think they even gave me some as samples a long time ago, but the new person just said no. I won't be using their FS Acrylic this time round though as I had 2 bonds fail in December at Combe (at 126 mph!), the acrylic came clean away from the wing. These were bonded on several years ago and had no problems but this was a sudden failure, possible caused by extreme cold as the car was out on the trailer the previous night and it was below freezing. I'm going back to Sika 292. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
