Bulk order of Bungees, put your order in here (was: Bungee Question)

Re: Bungee Question

Thanks! IT seems to be working. We still haven't heard back from someone who has used the 9010HDs on a pre war plane, but it looks like if they won't work the ppost war guys are getting close to the 50 unit price break. The "Old Plane" guys will have to work on it if we can't use the HDs.

Re: Bungee Question

Hank, That would be great if you could do that. I fully appreciate that you cannot get the numbers for a price break but last time I ordered from them they made a special run for me and I was happy with the price. In fact it was Forrest ( just found a previous Bungee thread ) who came up with the type and size for my aircraft. What UK car parts are you looking for? I am a Classic Car man ie MGA! PM me if you wish.

Bob,
Chuck is actually friends with him and was going to hand pick up the group buy. The SBC list doesn't even include F-22 bungees, but since he has the tooling to make them I am sure he should be able to make them up. His web site is at http://www.sbcindustries.com/products.htm and from what I understand he makes them to order from fresh material stocks. I am afraid it could take a while to get enough people for a price break for the F-22 and you will probably have to do a single order but I am sure we can make arrangements to get them paid for and shipped to you in GB. If nothing else I can mail them from here to you (maybe trade for English car parts....;-) ). We will have to find out what a run of 4 bungees will cost.

Re: Bungee Question

I hope Hal, the OP, will forgive me but I have amended the thread title to try to persuade more folks to get their orders in.

Re: Bungee Question

Hank,

My '39 (700 #empty wt.) has two year old 9090's on it now. If there's an order for 9090's in the plans, I would take four of those. If the 9010HD's are found to work out for the prewar models, I'm OK with four of those instead if it helps. Put me on the list please.

Thanks guys!

Re: Bungee Question

Louie,
I am in the same place. My 41 shows I am supposed to use the 9090s but I would like to hear from someone with a pre-war who has used the 9010HDs. If it isn't a good idea I guess we will just need to order ours alone and pay the difference.
Hank

Hank & Louie,
The 9090s would be the same thickness as the 9010, but only 9" long, verses 10" for the 9010. So....., since the 9010s are an inch longer and the same diameter, they will not give the same amount of tension as the 9090. But if you get the 9010HD, they might be pretty close to the same. If you contact SBC, I am sure they can tell you the tension of the 9090s. The 9010HD is listed as 475 lbs. It doesn't say how far out they are stretched to get that tension, but at least it is something to compare.

Re: Bungee Question

I have a '41 BC12-65 Deluxe and think that I need 4) 9090's. If it is determined that the 9010HD's will work and it will help meet the min. order, I am good with using them.

Could you ship a set ( 4 ) 0f 1110 by 11/16ths Superior Bungees for my F22A to the UK? I can't seem to get any in the UK only Auster wobler ones! The last time I needed any SBC Industries over there supplied the ones I have listed and they have worked great! I can pay by PayPal.

Thanks,
