Parts for Newman Pin Regi System?

[alan802]

Does anyone have or know where I can find the spring-loaded pins that are on the ends of the pallet swingout fixture?  I know they used to be on Stretch's website and sold individually (for outrageous prices if I remember correctly) but I've noticed some updates and changes to the website and I can't find the parts on there anymore.  If someone has a fixture and isn't using it and might part with the threaded spring loaded pins I'll pay for it or perhaps trade some "magic mesh" for them.

I have the swingout fixtures for the pallets but over the years the pins somehow managed to fall out even though we haven't used this system.  I also have the grid but no pin bar that attaches to the glass grid.  If anyone has any parts they'd be willing to let go shoot me an email or if anyone has any advice or comments let's hear it.

i think you have to call Stretch devices to order these parts. We've done it in the past

Not sure exactly what the part you need looks like, but this site has a ton of variety: http://www.jwwinco.com/products/section10/

Googling "spring-loaded pin" brought up a bunch of stuff

Alan,

Let me know what you come up with. I have two complete Newman systems, except one of them is missing one of the screw in spring pins. I was going to call Newman to order one so I can sell the extra one I have. I'll be interested in seeing if you find a screw/fastener place that sells it also.

For the pin bar. If your using the old style that goes on the exposure unit they aren't as accurate as the new style film to frame bar.  I have a extra old style 3 pin bar and a full size 5 pin bar. For MZX frames.

I have gotten some of the outrageous quotes but with a call at least was better pricing.

Thanks for the replies guys.  Greg, I'll get a pic of the parts I'm looking for.  I have one around here somewhere that is broken but it's been a few years since I've seen it.  I don't throw anything like that away so I should be able to find it. 

Mimosa, that is the along the right path but nothing on that page is exactly what I need but that's a good place to start.  I'll keep browsing that site and see if I find anything. 

At first I wasn't going to use the pin bar for the FPU but on second thought I think it would be best if I did and I should scrap the other idea I had for that process.  So I'll need the pins for the swingout and the pin bar that goes on the board.  I appreciate the help guys.  I'll be sure and show everyone the finished product...if I ever finish it.

They're called spring plungers.

Get them here.. http://www.mcmaster.com/#standard-spring-plungers/=rk75o9

Long nose standard body without thread lock.

You'll have to measure your threads as i don't know what size they are.

The spring plunger is going to be easy now with the help, but the other part I need for one arm is going to be a tough get.  I'll take some pics and post them if I get a chance this morning.  It's the spring loaded block that the spring plunger threads into.  I didn't think that I would need that part but I cannot find one of them that I took off.  It should be laying around this mess somewhere but I spent an hour digging around looking for it yesterday.
