Axis pin / Ground centerpin

[JollyRogers]

Hey all,
On my ssGGTS 026, the center pin the switch contacts (I think Imeo calls it the axis) is pitting with black spots. This is causing bad firing, and heat at the contact point. I tried cleaning it up, but still am having the same issue. I have also tried different switch etc... I know the issue is this pin. I see the new GGTS has a brass one avail also and CoV has the complete end cap assembly on PRE-SALE, which I don't want. I only need this small piece to get my GGTS to fire correctly again.

Any ideas on a way to make one from something??? I was thinking a small brass rod, and I could cut the threads... But I imagine someone has dealt with this and may have an easy fix.

Try removing the battery post cleaning bottom too, re-install making sure it is tightened down making contact

I have dspin. I either need to chuck the axis pin up in a drill and cut it down, or replace it. Looking for a way to replace it. Ideas on that?

 

[dspin]

Yes, send me your info and I will send you a new one

Thanks Imeothanasis . I would like to have a couple Will they fit the older SSGGTS plastic/delrin of the bottom cap OK?

I hope so, the new ones on new bottom cap have a tiny tip that sits in a small depression

axis will fit Rogers
pin will fit but you have to have the new adjustable button
