Hi everyone, I've just joined, and this is my first post.
I have just bought a vintage 1972 Nagra SN recorder, and I'm trying to find out if the pinch roller is supposed to have a rubber tyre.
The one I have appears to have a fine knurled metal finish, so i suspect the rubber sleeve / tyre has long since perished. I've looked at many pictures of similar machines but none show a tyre, so i suspect they have all lost their tyres.
I did find a picture on Terry's Rubber Rollers of one he has refurbished, but wanted to check with some experts, any ideas.
