Hi All

I’ve just finished fitting new linings to some 1 1/4 shoes to be used as a spare set.

Imagine my annoyance when I discovered this crack!

I can only think I’ve been a bit too heavy knocking out the old rivet or with the air hammer fitting the new rivet.  Luckily I have a spare shoe…..but it got me wondering how serious this crack actually is?  It won’t progress across the shoe further than the rivet hole and is possibly not too highly stressed.

Any comments before I chuck it in the bin?

Howard
