Hello everyone.
I'm simply curious. I have a Technics RS TR373 deck that hasn't been used for a few years because some gears have broken.
I bought them on eBay from someone who makes them in Poland. (there are really few who make replacements).
They are nominated as RXL0106; REM0043 and RDG0206.
My question is, does anyone know why Technics/Panasonic made them from a totally different material than the rest of the gears on the deck and why they crack and break over time?
That detail catches my attention. Could it be to reduce noise?
Another reason?.
The ones I bought are made of polyurethane resin, I think they are stronger than the originals, but harder.
Greetings.
