Prototype tested by a couple of Beoworld members (plus myself of course) and now available in a limited reproduction:

Idler wheel (clutch / reel table) rubber parts for:
Beocord 2000 (cassette version only), Beocord 3300, Beocord 5000 (type 49xx only), Beocord 6000, Beocord 6002 (HX-PRO),
Beocord 8000, Beocord 8002 (HX-Pro), Beocord 8004 (HX-PRO), Beocord 9000, Beocenter 2200, Beocenter 5000, Beocenter 7000, Beocenter 7002, Beocenter 7007 and Beocenter 7700.

By now the original idler wheel rubber parts will have worn and/or dried out to an extent where functionality is compromised.

Tape motion, Fast Forward, Fast Reverse (wind/rewind) etc. becomes sluggish or completely non-functional and the deck can become mechanically noisy.

Not only will these new rubber parts provide an improved friction over the original parts, this brand new
rubber material will not harden with heat or dry out with age as fast as the original material did.
Another good thing is that, compared to the original parts, these new parts will not be as prone to “memory”-effect (staying deformed) after being left engaged for a prolonged time.

The set includes all idler rubbers needed for the given tapedeck.
Four rubber parts are shown in the photo, some decks use only three.
These parts are direct replacements for the original rubber parts. No modifications necessary.
You will be replacing only the rubber parts, you will keep and re-use all other parts.
Replacing the rubber parts requires some technical and mechanical skills and tools.

Set price: €12 incl. postage (same price worldwide).
PM or email me and please specify deck type.
