Juliet ear stem washers

Linegear makes good stuff but not the washers. Their washers are at least twice or three times the thickness of OEM. At least the ones I bought.

Yeah they're twice as thick but you just use one each above / below instead of doubling up like OEM.

And the inside hole is a small-diameter so you really need to push that screw through it

I did that but still found it tight and the subsequent arm movement a bit rigid.

But will try again in future.

If scienergy's washers are a better alternative, it's a moot point, really...

Not when you are in Tokyo and get Linegear in a day with minimal shipping. Here's hoping LG can refine and perfect their washers!

US-centricity is rampant on OF ;-)

But then I guess 90% of us are in the US.

Hmm wonder what the ratios are....

Back on topic!

I've mentioned this before and if you're in a hurry or wish to produce a few yourself, you can use laminate sheets (for paper) which are very durable indeed. You simply need a fine drill to begin with, followed by a hole punch tool - the kind for leather etc and you're good to go!

You could also look at acetate sheets used on overhead projectors (showing my age).

I have tried using Teflon, bought a sheet ebay and used a leather punch to get the right outer diameter and then a smaller one for the screw hole. Work, but I found out that Teflon although tough is also prone to stretching if not careful when inserting them.

Actually...... It's OXM parts

I've bought some washers from OXM they are really good, would highly recommend

You will want OEM ear-sock, nose-bombs, etc.

Scour eBay.

Oakley.com (if they still stock them)

The other companies are simply attempting to make a profit from the highly-regarded O
