[TowerTalk] Friction disk for Fulton K2550

[Tom Anderson]

John:
 
I have the 1550 on a W51 crank up and it has squealed whenever I lower it from the date I first installed it.  Squealing maybe just a Fulton fault.  Mine sounds like I'm killing someone and a couple neighbors have called about it, but understood once I told them what the squealing was.
 
Tom, WW5L

>Has anyone found a good mail order source for replacement friction disks for a Fulton K2550? I called Fulton and they were not very helpful. I am told the part number I need is 1578s00. My brake has started to squeak a fair bit when I lower my UST TX455 tower, even though the tower and winch are less than a year old. I may try to sand the disk, but want to have a replacement or two in stock as well. Thanks and 73, John/N0FCD
