Mechanical Brakes

[jhautz]

Yea linc. That would work for sure, but I dont think Mike makes those motor heat sinks in house any more and changing a big part like that is sure to be alot harder to do than just making the simple adapter plate, but its definitly worth asking him about if you want it.

I personally am not planning to use a motor that requires an clamp/heatsink so it woulnt work for me.

Entjoles, The plate I asked him to make for me was thicker than 4mm. I think I will need 6.35mm (1/4") to clear the whole brake mechanism. Thats what I asked him to make for me.

ok thanks, ill shot him another email

i also trimmed off part of the hs/clamp and got lots of room

it will accept a 14 that i have and maybe a 13 if i dremal the brake pad plate

so i could just use a neu adapter plate with part of it cut off right?

this is the size i will need when i get a diff. motor w/o the heatsink clamp

my 4mm + the hs.clamp of 2mm = pretty close to what you came up with

i wish i had a caliper
