skunkriv Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Moloch, Mayer (not Mayer Brothers), or Murco. Would like to know the installed length of the spring on this hammer. Hammer at rest with the toggle arms at or very near horizontal. Also the gap distance between coils as installed. Sid at Little Giant says people have been using 100 lb LG springs to replace Moloch springs but the ID on the LG springs is larger than the stock Moloch spring. I am trying to spec/order the right size spring from a manufacturer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigjohn Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 I just delivered a 100lb Mayer to a smith in Norwalk, CT it had a brand new spring mounted on it. I'll dig his phone number back out and you could call him for dimensions if you ask real nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skunkriv Posted January 25, 2008 Author Share Posted January 25, 2008 Thank you John. That will be a big help if you could please. I wonder where the new spring was purchased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamey Knives Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 there is a 100 Moloch at the blacksmith shop at Tannehill, next time im down i can measure if you dont have your info by then. you may want to stick with Moloch, Murray, or Murco demensions.

skunkriv Posted January 26, 2008 Author Share Posted January 26, 2008 Thanks Matt. The more hammers I have measurements from the better. This is a work in progress and I have plenty of time before ordering a spring. Still have the old one also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
