FIVE[501st] Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 Hey all, so I know this is asked (and answered) other places, but the threads are hard to find so for my sake (and the sake of others) I wanted to start a new thread. Please post links to places where to buy proper neck trim and neck seal. I believe you can order them from McMaster.com, but not sure what "part" numbers they are. Also, can you get this stuff (or close enough) at Lowes, Home Depot, or any other "local" US stores? If so, where??? What "department / area" of the stores? Thanks!! (The quicker the answers the better as I would love to buy some while I'm out and around town today...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cr4nky Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 Aw damn....I just read the thread here that states what the itemnumbers for the trims from McMasters are, but I can't find it!!! I'll post them if I find them though! I'm gonna need this thread, as my MR CE is coming this week:-) Can't wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troopermaster Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 (edited) I've got some nice 'S' profile neck trim if your looking to buy some? Edited February 10, 2021 by gmrhodes13 photos updated gmrhodes13 2021 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FIVE[501st] Posted July 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 yeah, I'm going to use it on my MR CE too (which is coming along awesome btw!) If I can't find any I may be interested in that to buy. And, kid I do find some, I will post on here where I found it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks good:) I might be needing a couple of feet of it.

Nairod Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 (edited) Maybe this topic will interest you--------- Read the Billhag's posts!!! Finally I can get S shaped trim from Webers! Not bad but smaller than a original. Better shape than the sealsdirect. Paul, you're neck trim have a great look! Not enough square for a "screen accurate" de,nomination, but certainly the best that I've ever seen since sealsdirect change the shape of if "neck trim" Edited February 10, 2021 by gmrhodes13 link not working, removed gmrhodes13 2021 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troopermaster Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 The old style SWR150 is now obsolete. This profile I have is the best that I have found and not as big as the new SWR150 but bigger than the Webers' trim. I will take a pic of the profile against the Webers and Seals direct to compare. It's not as square as I would like, but looks good enough on the helmet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elkamino Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 I've used McMaster Carr's No. 8510K19 for the brow trim which is a touch shorter (about 2-3 millimeters) than the screen accurate which is 15mm in height (Seals Direct No. US 52 or Atlas Seal No. ATS 4). Atlas Seals in the UK has a great match for the movie accurate neck trim which is Stock No. ATW118 but I have not been able to get any response from them.

troopermaster Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 (edited) Here is a comparison shot of the neck trims. Unfortunately I cannot find the sample of the new SWR150, but if you have it, you already know how thick it is.

Nairod Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 Does somebody have a good pictures of a neck trim from an original helmet please? Because I never noticed that it was a S shaped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
langy Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 Having finally gotten hold of both types of trim for my helmet, i'm wondering if anybody can tell me what is the most secure way of fastening them to the afore mentioned helmet, Hot glue? Epoxy resin? Superglue? Help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Epoxy resin? Superglue? Help! I don't use any adhesives at all. If it is necessary, I'd use a silicon adhesive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
langy Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 standard silicone adhesive...? as in the stuff used for 'sealing' around a bath tub? does this run the risk of damaging the paintwork ? (as i'm re-painting mine). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK-7980 Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 Yep, standard silicon, clear is preferred but not necessary. Wow awesome. Same stuff as the sealant used for the mouth thing. Now I don't have to go out and buy more glue! Came home today to find out my cold house (or some unknown force) weakened the brow trim bond. Side note, has anyone else's MR CE started to feel... wobbly or like its coming apart everywhere after a while? Could this be fixed/reinforced with screws?

langy Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 Many thanks for your help folks, *salutes you* Scampers off to dig out the silicone sealant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riveting Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 Just a quick note for folk's with the MRCE lid wanting necktrim, if you get the S shaped trim from seals direct you will still, somehow have to negotiate the acute curves around the vocoder area! There is a thread aound here somewhere of the very same issue, Appologies but I can't find it at the mo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
