Can anybody help me locate a hub nut to keep my reel from falling off the hub on my Fostex reel to reel? One of two are missing. Anybody here have one they could sell?!?! PLEASE!?!?
 
Great suggestions, but yea... I did. The techs thought I was crazy asking about such ancient equipment as a reel to reel. Ebay turns up nothing unless I want to spend $$$ on a whole other reel to reel.

Sorry. That was all I could think of. Maybe someone has one lying around, which model was it?
 
It's an A-8, but I believe any of the hub nuts from Fostex will work. I think the shape and thread remained the same throughout their line.

And of course it's custom made, so getting a replacement has been a real bear.... good luck! I hope someone reads this who has an old Fostex that isn't working anymore and can hook you up.
 
Hub nut?

In audio circles, that's known as a "reel clamper". :eek:

Good luck finding yer nuts! :eek:
