  • Fuel tube rubber grommets

    Hi All,

    Just wondering if anyone has any idea what is the part number or the name of these rubber grommets that go in both sides of the frame (where the pressure fuel tube from the exhaust to the tank goes through)..

    I seem to have lost them when i was putting the NSP together.. Been through about 10 pages of 600 parts on shop websites and didn't spot them..

    Cheers,

    Mo

    You can get them at most car factors etc, they are just cable grommets. Will check the manual though.

      The part number in my NSP build manual is 50NB037 but, on searching Fast Lad, I couldn't see them.

      Edit: As Paul said, might these do the trick?

        I tried the parts finder on FL website and they don't exist.. Bummer

        As Paul said, i might try to find a suitable cable grommet to install in the heli instead..

        Thanks for looking guys..

          It's saving weight

            It'd weigh even less if you didn't put the fuel in.

              Vibration will rub the pipe through in quick time with no grommit fitted Paul.

                    As far as i know Align don't supply these grommets as a seperate item yet but i think you could use canopy grommets from Synergy which are used for the N9.

                    These should have an internal Dia of approx 5mm and an external Dia of approx 7mm.

                    Synergy Canopy Grommet Part Number: 110-418

                    Hope this helps!
                    Thanks!

                        How Fast will it rub the pipe through ? It's just done 130 eleven minute flights killed 3 clunk tubes but not that one.
                        If I had them I would use them.
                        thanks Paul

                          Just seen rosscos post, cable gromets might be a bit big!
