in you haven't already come across this, I bought one of these just last week and they are very good and built to last. Only come nickel plated though http://www.drumatix.com/lf-hw-10.html

no worries. Well if you get stuck you know what to do. It seems the original ones were a real weak point. Here's mine with nickel one fitted (the rest being chrome). You have to have a good eye to pick it.

The nickle-plated arms from Drumatix are of excellent quality. If I were doing a rebuild/refurbish of a clamshell striner, I wouldn't sweat the fact that the arm is nickle. Just MHO.
