Re: Cheap Imported Lamello Fasteners
|
Karl,
I can tell you the "Lamino" connectors are a lot cheaper on Taobao china than Ali-Express even adding the shipping cost.
100 pairs of "Lamino" P14 is US$7.53 on taobao.? There are many stores selling different "Lamino" connectors on taobao. Install taobao app on your phone and check yourself.
?
80 pairs of Lamello tenso P14 is US$105, damn!
Lamello had sold 100K-th Zeta P2 last year. They probably made more money from the plastic connectors than the Zeta p2 machines

See the attached picture (Gmail throws error when I try to insert the photo).?
A recent project required the use of a bunch of Lamello Tenso connectors, but was just for home so didnt want to fork out for originals.

I purchased some "Lamino" clips from "Loving & Loving Oh! Store" on Ali-Express (), arrived after about a week, and honestly for the price I'm quite impressed. For the Tenso connectors the clamping strength is probably ~75% of the original ones, and fit in all the 14mm slots I bored. I got some of their Clamex too, but havent had to use them in anger, but playing around with them requires a 15mm slot vs the standard 14mm one, but with a 15mm slot works just fine. a little more lateral play that original but not complaining.
?
For ~20c per Tenso pair (vs ~$1 ea OEM, AliExpress price flucuates a bit), I was pretty happy with the result.
?
Just sharing if anyone is after some, as I've heard some are pretty ill fitting.
