Spinlock Tiller Extension

[Simon054]

Hi,
I have an old Spinlock tiller extension and the plastic bracket at the end has degraded and snapped. Spinlock no longer make the part which is part number CS06 (green plastic internal components), does anyone know of a Chandlers that may have one as I have searched the interweb and had no luck. Failing this I will have to buy a new one which is a shame as the rest of the handle is sound.

This happened in my last boat some years ago.

I now can't remember the details but I think spinlock sent me the later parts and I managed to modify them to fit.

Do you have any photos or diagrams that might jog my memory?

I hope someone comes up with a solution because mine has also broken at one end. One of the two holes used to secure it is intact so it is still usable.

I have attached a photo of the damaged parts.

Hard to tell from the photo but I would have thought epoxy and some self tappers would have sorted this - worth a try?

I had a similar problem - there is a later replacement part made of alloy not plastic - about £40 I think.

I have one in its original wrappers - I'll pm you!

Just made a fitting with a piece of hardwood and find I have been kindly offered one that is sat in a garage. However I have attached a photo of the bodged item, thanks for the comments and the kind offer.

alteredoutlook, I don't suppose you still have that replacement part for the Spinlock tiller extension?
