Juhunio 6830 Posted May 1, 2021 No, not a hidden Bowie remix... But a genuine bit of curiosity In the picture below are four e-rings. Across the top, from right to left, are Tamiya 2, 3 and 4mm e-rings as provided with most kits and in part number 50380 Beneath them is the oddity The bottom e-ring came with my Super Astute kit, in such a number that they must be intended as a 2mm e-ring. But they are bigger than the visual guide in the manual for a 2mm e-ring In terms of footprint, they're much bigger than a 2mm e-ring, nearer 3mm. But in terms of aperture, they're 2mm So, is this a 'thing'? Do Tamiya have two different 'sizes' of 2mm e-ring? Or is this an older form factor that at some point go replaced by newer, smaller 2mm e-rings? I imagine they would be fine over the likes of suspension rods, but they seem to be quite big for pistons I seem to have over 40 of them 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Willy iine 18805 Posted May 1, 2021 Juhunio - I have a bunch of random e-rings in my screw/fastener box and always wondered if I had mixed brands in there. Now I know they were probably all from Tamiya. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
