Electronic fuel tap rubber membranes

Post by Fastmongrel »

Is there any news on the production of new electro tap rubber membranes. I would happily buy two if that helps with costs.

Thanks for asking, and yes, we are committed to producing a batch and this is now in full swing, with tooling designed and material spec agreed.

The club has paid for the tooling (quite an investment which we are grateful to the club for) and the sample parts should be with us by the end of the month. We will then conduct a test program to make sure we are 100% happy, after which we will be able to kick off the first batch.

It is definitely happening and these will be available in the spring.

Fantastic news. I didn't realise it was so complicated to organise it all sounds so easy on the internet.

So, another update on these.

They’re now in production. They will be available in time for the club’s rally in June (where you can also see the test rig) and will also be on sale via the club products page by the end of June.

A great outcome, and well done to the club for putting in the money and effort to produce these.
