WARNING: Clear QIC Tape Bands

[Chuck(G)]

Yes.

Does it matter which Cyclomethicone you use?
My local source doesn't specify which of D3, 4, 5 or 6 type it is.

 

[Chuck(G)]

I use the cosmetic grade, which I believe is a combination of D5 and D6 (there may be trace amounts of D4). Example

Thanks, and if I have any left over, I can have a great hair day or two

Believe me--500 ml is more that you'll use for tape. Just don't spill it--it makes for some really slick floors (ask me how I know!).

I unknowingly got some WD40 on a tile floor once.
I did my Dorothy Hamel impression. (Thank God no one was home to watch that split I did)

Anyway, The small DC2120 tapes is there a Plastiband or other belt available for them?

Misumi carries the Mobilon bands. You'll have to buy a couple hundred of them, however. I keep mine in the freezer, along with other TPU and rubber items.

THANKS!

Any idea which ones fit the mini carts?

looks like you can different lengths and widths

 

[Chuck(G)]

I haven't checked, but I think I use the 90x3 ones for the DC2000 carts.

You are a good man sir!

I was fortunate enough to buy a case of ten 2120's that performed as factory new.
SO now I have a bag of these bands.

Could someone tell me the unstretched diameter, width and thickness of these bands? A while ago I bought some material to have a go at CNC cutting new ones. I was just going to make a concentric set and see what fitted my old DC600s the best.

 

[Chuck(G)]

Thickness is about 0.4 mm; width is 5 mm folded length is about 120 mm.

What is "D6"? Another name for Cyclomethicone?

D6 brings to mind something I used when cleaning my vinyl records.

 

[Chuck(G)]

Could be--pretty inert and somewhat volatile stuff.
