HELP! Lost insulator for VGOD Elite RDTA

[Figfig]

So I had the great idea of cleaning my RDTA this weekend. I lost the positive post insulator :-(

It’s a long shot, but, would anyone know about getting a replacement?

Are you talking about the one that slides on the 510 pin?
If so, I have a lot of atty parts in a box. There are some insulators of different sizes.
I don't know what size you need but I'll send a few for you to try.
PM me an address and I'll mail Tues.

No unfortunately this is the insulator that goes underneath the post. It’s large oval shaped.

Sorry, can't help with that one

If its flat, you can just make your own with a piece of rubber or silicone.

Terrible advice using that material under a positive post. It will short out and cause a big problem

Ok, here’s a list of electrical insulation materials. OP can choose any he likes. Needs to be high temp resistant.

Thanks for the suggestions. I’ve been working with VGOD and they are sending me an insulator. Had some hoops to jump through but I think they are gonna take care of me.

I understand that, but what he needs is a insulator with shoulders on it to keep the positive post centered, away from the negative side of the deck.
Silicone or rubber as you suggested, is too flexible for his application. It needs to be a Peek insulator.
