Supplier for 20mm Vulcanizing patchs?
In article ,
wrote: I think that you're right--www.rematiptop.com lists the RE-F0P as 16 mm, not 20 mm: I measured one of these patches this morning - it would seem they're neither 16mm nor 20mm. The black rubber centre is 14mm in diameter, while the tapered orange layer has a diameter of 18mm. My only guess now of what's going on is that the 16mm reflects the diameter of the orange layer as a punching that is then squished in manufacturing to taper the edges. Yet, patches I have from another source (not Rema) measure at 25mm. Curious. -Luns |

Tom, These are the same 25mm patches that your LBS carries, not the 20mm you asked for. This is however, the best price I've seen for the 25mm patches. QBP used to list three different sizes of patches in 100-ct boxes: the 16mm Rema F0P, this 25mm Rema F1P, and an intermediate 20mm size made by Innovations. After trying to order the Innovations patches twice, I was told that they're NLA from the manufacturer, and I settled with getting the 16mm patches instead. Any LBS should be able to order the 16mm patches from QBP for you. I'm not aware of any source for 20mm patches. http://mikesbikes.com/site/page.cfm?...129&SKU=PK2001 http://mikesbikes.com/site/page.cfm?...129&SKU=PK2004 http://mikesbikes.com/site/page.cfm?...129&SKU=PK2000 -Luns Dear Tom and Mike, Here are the 20 mm Rema patches: http://www.biketoolsetc.com/index.cg...em_id= RE-F0P (They also sell the 1-inch patches and 2-inch ovals, but not the 16 mm patches.) Carl Fogel Yes, that's the ones Carl, thanks! -tom Dear Tom, Alas, Luns seems to be right, and the claim on the web page is probably mistaken. He's measured real Rema RE-FPO patches and found them to be about 16-18 mm, depending on what you consider the edge. The Rema site itself lists only two sizes, inch and 16 mm. So let's call them big and small. Hope the small ones are what you want. Carl Fogel |
