nerdsforprez Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 Hello All, First time poster here on the train forum.... long time user on the Technic forum..... quick question on the part in the topic title. Can this part fit into the center of a black 2L Technic pin when it is already inserted into two Lift arms? I know that bar pieces can.... is this part roughly the same diameter as a bar element? Quote
marook Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 It's roughly 1/2 the diameter of a bar, so it fits, but will be loose. Quote
dr_spock Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 It is 2mm in diameter. It is very loose, enough that it will fall out. You can find length of metal rods in the diameter similiar to the bar element at any hobby shop or online and cut them to size. Quote
davidzq Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 The axle will fit into 3mm rigid hose, which in turn fits into the technic pins (3mm hose is the same diameter as the standard bars). The hose can be cut to any length needed (Required in official lego sets, so considered "purist" by most). Quote
