We can offer a choice of two types of locomotive hornblock for use with chassis built on the Flexichas principle as devised by Mike Sharman. For further details of this method of construction we recommend Mike Sharman's book on the subject.
Both our designs (for a 6 coupled chassis) feature a bespoke brass square bearing positively located by the hornguide and no thin brass edge to wear away as in some other Flexichas based designs. They will fit any standard chassis hornblock cutout 6mm wide and 4mm above the normal axle centre line.
Option one - Detailed
This is a unique design of locomotive hornblock combining the better characteristics of existing Flexichas and sprung systems. Check out these features:
Based on actual prototype, fully detailed with strengthening ribs etc.
Screw fitting of retaining strap so that bearing can be removed from chassis.
Fixed axle bearing also designed to be removed from chassis.
Price: £8.00
