Custom Length Stainless Steel Arm Posts (5/8”)

[Tom Wills]

I’ve had many problems over the years I’ve had my PRO arm with aluminum arm posts. After bending several of them, and one beginning to crack, I decided to start making Stainless Steel arm posts. I’ve had a local medical parts manufacturer create precision-ground stainless tubes that are exactly (to within +/- .0005” in diameter) .621”, the same as the arm posts that came with my arm. I can cut these down to any length you’d like, and can add holes for low mode brackets, or not, if you’d like.

I’ve been running similar (turned instead of ground, so the finish wasn’t as nice as these) stainless posts for several years now, and they are a huge improvement in strength - no more permanent deformation when using them with heavy loads! (Even 60+ pound packages on an 18” arm post - not that I’d recommend that!)

Pricing is as follows:
With holes for pins:
6” (or shorter) - $80
8” - $80
10” - $100
12” - $120

Without holes for pins:
6” - $60
8” - $60
10” - $80
12” - $100

I also can supply plain aluminum shaft collars for $10 each, or I can direct you to how to pick them up yourself for cheaper.

These require a bit of time and work to cut down, machine the ends, and add the holes, so they do cost a bit more than aluminum ones, but I think they’re worth it!
