UPDATE 2/26/19: More available and ready to ship if anyone missed the first run.
Well that took a lot longer than I expected... but the High Strength Torsion Tools are finally complete. I tested them on a car in the shop and there's NO WAY these are going to bend, and the 'comfort handle' makes it super comfortable to use. They're $35 each + $5 shipping in the ConUS. You can PayPal HERE. Make SURE there is a valid shipping address on your payment, please... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smiley_notworthy.gif) Checks can go to the shop, the address is HERE.

I don't think it'l be an issue with this little tool, but just FYI when I talked with my plater about what the real story was with 'Hydrogen Embrittlement' my main take-away was that it's not a big deal, except on hardened metals. This tool is hardened.
I don't think our trunk torsion spring is even close to stressing the metal, so plating is seriously unlikely to cause a problem. But I would talk to someone knowledgeable at your CAD plating shop to be sure. |
