The rubbery cast & pretzel yokes were done with a dipping process; they of
course cannot be painted. Then for cost cutting, the cast yokes were merely
primed and painted. The Feris F-19's used the painted ones , I have them
all here for samples. WE then used Power coat 2000 to do some powder coated
ones and they almost have the feel of the dipped ones...I have pictures here
is a powder coated one they go for $55.00 the NOS plain ones are now
$15.00 they were $5.00 at one time.... Supply & demand u know...
copied to the list for reference... bye Forrest

Forrest,
Just a little curious about these yokes you describe; are these NOS ones
from original? If so I didn't know they could be coated or painted. Mine
are OS and in good shape but hardly N.
The handles seem to have a black coating similar to vinyl or a similar
rubbery plastic layer that's soft to the touch like insulation. I'd
thought about changing the color but didn't figure paint would stay on a
rubbery surface without cracking. Nu-Vinyl did work well enough though.
Can you tell me about this? I paid the "going rate", and it sure wasn't
$15!
They're from a BC-12D-85. I can send pics.
