As soon as I will receive my order of PEEK material from eBay.I have ton of Delrin, but you don't want it. I'm willing to bet that Delrin is used in Crius clone. I'm planning to machine few PEEK insulators and place them on eBay. At how much, do you think, I should price them?
Wow, I don't know. If the entire base is available from FT for $8.80 it seems it would be hard for you to turn a profit machining the insulators....hmmmm
FT does not specify the insulator material on the replacement base though. I'm in a quandary.
I agree with you though, that delrin would work fine, as long as you don't get the pos post screaming hot by over dryburning the coils.
BTW, the STmini delrin meltdown problem was not caused by hot coils, it was caused by a loose connection which caused massive amounts of heat to be generated from arcing and voltage drop at the pos post/pos airtube junction. I could see the carbon tracks on my og STmini from arcing. Tightened things up and I'm still using it today.
