Does IGO-L fit on Poldiac?

[wertyxhts]

Just got my Poldiac but my IGO-L doesn't fit it. Seems too like its too tight and I don't want to force it. Don't want to mess up my threads.

Does anyone have an IGO-L on a Poldiac?

Is the Poldaic 510 threaded?
IGO-L is standard 510 threading

Just got an Igo L last week, fits great on my Poldiac. Yes, both are 510 threaded. I would guess that the threads on the Igo are a little rough, Chinese clone devices are notorious for that, I would hit them with some fine steel wool to clean them up and see if that helps.

No problem here. Took a picture for you.

Have you checked your top pin height?

yup that isnt the issue. Just won't let me thread through. Like B2L says, it is a little rough.

What do you mean hit it with fine wool? You mean use it to sand the threads on the IGO?

Yes, or you can use a fine sandpaper, I use a 400 grit wet/dry sandpaper. The steel wool is a little more forgiving. It just takes off any burrs. One of the big differences between a high $ device and a "clone" quality device is the fit and finish, particularly on the threads. Once you clean them up it should thread on fine.

the threading is an M7x0.5. You could pick up a nut and chase the threads to clean them up.

got mine to fit. thanks guys. The threads were too wide, so I sanded it down with 400 grit sand paper.

Sand paper or a nut is fine for a IGO-L

But crxess is right on the thread spec.

agreed. my friend has a poldiac. my igo S mini fit fine on his. its hit or miss in general with chinese made rba's. but in general, igo quality control is pretty good.

I have 2 of the IGO-L's and use them on my Poldiacs and GUS. So far, no problems. I like them; easy to set up and maintain.
