Description

PDF

This accessory is ideal for those who equip their Stealth press with a Pinecil or TS100 iron. The Key-Bak Super48 pull is a bit too powerful for such light irons and the arm will slam into the top of the press if released from the bottom after inserting a heat set. This accessory adds just enough weight to the arm assembly to slow down its upward return motion.

For the counterweight, you will need 4 M12 x 35mm hex head bolts that screw into the saddle. This should bring the total weight of the assembly to somewhere between 190-200 grams. For more or less weight, you can experiment with the number of bolts and different lengths.
