I need Klett hinges!!

neil russell · 01-31-2007, 01:55 PM

Finishing my 40%,,where do I get the big Klett hinges??Having trouble finding them,,"ANYBODY"?

MattyMatt · 01-31-2007, 02:10 PM

Klett does not exist anymore (out of business). The next closest hinge is the Dubro.

**TheTank** · 01-31-2007, 02:14 PM

I was told by my LHS Klett still makes the products, but as a small scale business now, either operated out of a small facility or house/shop. And that the products have to be ordered directly from Klett now. Im in the same situation, I need them for my Dalton 300, and I asked my LHS if he still had the ability to get them, he said that he did... hopefully he has some coming for me.... hopefully...

I understand that they do not make them anymore.... Ebay, I saw a bag of 100 on there just last week for $25.

The dubro hinges work really well also.

**TheTank** · 01-31-2007, 04:17 PM

Dubros work good too, I just hate assembling them.... yes... I am lazy...

I used the robarts on my Dalton... I used CF pins on the hinges at the tips and roots. They work fine.

I believe Carl Goldberg bought out Klett, and I've seen that they carry the Klett tailwheels in their catalog.

Flatlandman · 01-31-2007, 10:11 PM

My hobby shop carries them if you need some pm me and ill hook ya up with their number and info. He isnt a mail order place but will send orders to people who want him to.
