[UK-CONTEST] Fulton K1550 winch parts

[Ray James]

Hi all,

Not quite contesting but possibly of interest to those like myself using a 60' Versatower or similar and use the Fulton K1550 winches for raising and luffing.
The friction brake disk on my raising winch gave up the ghost last week so I needed to find a replacement.

My initial email enquiry was to the firm I purchased the winch from.

Anglia
We can offer a friction disc kit for £25 + delivery + vat.  We normally use a carrier so we can track the delivery and this will cost £18.00, otherwise we can send un tracked in the post for approx. £6.00.
Delivery will be approx. 5 working days.

and the alternative!

Good Afternoon, thank you for your email. The friction plates are available from stock, our part No. 4452 price £4.85 plus £5.00 post and packing plus VAT. Next day delivery.
