Suction Cups

Post by Layne »

My bridges utilize a 3 inch diameter cup to affix them to the windshield. A screw 2 1/2inches long is threaded into the cup on one end and feeds through the bribge to a threaded knob for tightening. Does anyone know where I may obtain this type of cup? Mine are old and no longer maintain a suction during the repair process.

Thanks,
Layne

I believe all users of this type of cup are made by WOODS. DO a google search for woods suction cups and you may find them. Lots of PDR guys also buy these for their fog boards and lights.

The bridges I have were "inherited" from a former son-in-law. He had them manufactured by a shop in Huntsville, AL. They are clear and I believe patterned after the Novus style bridges. They have been great down through the years...I believe that the suction cups are from a different source. They now just release from the windshield after a couple of minutes. I'll search Woods Suction Cups and see what that reveals. Thanks for your input guys.

Try Duobond in Holland wood are a completely different animal, they rely on a pump system. Why not invest in a couple of new one's. What type of injector are you using most have much the same thread type.

Screenman. I have 6 of the bridges...nothing wrong with them, just the aging suction cups. I still have quite a lot of the novus injectors and rotate them in and out of my system. Unless I am unable to locate the suction cups, I do not see the need to invest in another system---but I may have to do just that.

Yes, do a google. The bridge they do are very much the same as Novus, although these are not as well designed or constructed as the Delta one's they do work quite well. They will need a very slight modification to improve them if you have or get one.
