Hello, I found a source in Europe for 7/8 inch hollow polycarbonate blades...and if I can get enough people who want them, my contacts there can make a bulk order.  We know we have USA sources, but the costs to get them over to Europe areas can be expensive, so finding a source there has been found, but if people from that region could speak up by telling me the following:


- number of 7/8 blades you'd want if the price was right
- fully assembled or not (just the tube)
- bullet tip / normal tip / none

so I can pass on your requests to get this large order started in time for Duke and Sid units, that all will take 7/8 blades.   Our designated installers can provide a blade, but this idea is to help out Euro customers with a purchase from a Euro supplier, on behalf of my contact.

I might be interested in a couple.

Are these going to be clear polycarbonate or white?

The specs should be 7/8" OD (22.25mm), 3/4" ID (19.05mm) => 1/16" (1.59mm) wall thickness. So they are thin walled blades and will work with TCSS 7/8" clear tips (bullet or normal).

Would it be possible to give a rough price range?
And what would be the threshold of blades ordered for this run to happen?

I am now pretty shure to get two of them.

Thanks Ryô.
For completeness sakes I'd like to have bullet tips.

Darth Ryô, I noticed that you updated the lis
Also noticed that boxster had the options for (1" adaptor) :o
I didn't even know they existed, so I would very much like to have a 1' adaptor for one of my complete blades (if possible)  ^-^  ^-^
Thanks

List updated.

I apologize for the delay guys, but the discussion are still on going on the supplier side.
I'm waiting for news from JQ on this and as soon as I have some, I'll update this thread.
