Gargrave Track Insulators

[Anonymous]

Are insulating pins available for Gargraves track?  I have not seen them listed on the Gargrave site.

Bobcat,  I used GG flex track and when I wanted an insulated section I just cut a slot with the Dremel after securing the track.  In areas where I thought the rail might spring out of alignment I filled the gap with no conductive epoxy.  If using sectional you could cut a strip of styrene and push it in to the ends.

Bobcat;

Yes, they are, although they are a relatively recent addition to the GG product line.  E-mail GG and they'll provide you with the product number or ask your GG track supplier for the pins.  Prior to this we were left to our own ingenuity to create insulating pins.  I preferred to use round wooden toothpicks cut to length while others went with plastic or just left a gap in the middle rail.

GarGraves now lists fiber pins on their website but finding a GarGraves dealer who carries these pins is not easy. I have been using K-Line S Gauge insulating pins, just cut the outside down a bit with an exacto knife.
