Hatari Wall Fans

[Lickey]

We have 4 Hatari wall mounted fans and all seem to have gone bad at the same time, slow start-up, noisy, on initiall inspection it seems the front bearing has worn out, strip down reveals the bearing is ok, its the amature shaft that is worn, making enquires, the amature costs nearly as much as the complete fan, [for a falang anyway] so what im looking for is Loctite Metal repair paste, used to use it a lot in UK on old car/bike restorations, water pump spindles, distributor drives ect, ive looked for it in Udon Home Pro, Tool Pro ect, no joy, anybody seen this??

Thanks, Lickey..

Seems odd that all 4 have the same mechanical issue at the same time. I suppose they all see equal usage? Even if they do.... still seems to be a bit of an anomaly.

so what im looking for is Loctite Metal repair paste

It sure is great stuff, that Loctite. Here is a link that may turn up a good lead (not sure if they speak English). http://www.loctite.c...ent=asiapacific
