Trace Elliot EQ slider ends required

[Spewy]

My lad has posted mine into my cab, I’ve managed to rescue most of them but am missing a few, any ideas where I can get replacements?

Which type? There have been a few over the decades. A photo would help.

You could probably get by with small bits of heat shrink tubing.  A bit Blue Peter, though.

These are from British Audio:

Somebody could have quite a good little side business 3D printing these things.

I doubt Trace Elliot used special parts - I'd be surprised if you can't find a suitable replacement from your favourite online retailer.

Cheers guys, I’ve got some on the way now👍

So many opportunities of making jokes about getting a new child.........

It looks like your sliders have been snapped off rather than just the rubber tips removed as per the original poster's issue.

I have  replacement parts  (but which did not come with them caps).

In the past I've managed to adapt the covers used for miniature toggle switches - https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/toggle-switch-caps/8431985/

They need to be trimmed down in height but they can usually be pushed onto the slider shaft. a tiny spot of glue such as evo stick may help to keep then in position as well.

TE head for spares - pretty sure you could recoup your money if sold in bits
