Looking for a UK spares supplier for an Align AL250 power feed

115 forum posts 30 photos | I don't suppose that anyone know of a UK supplier for Align Milling Machine Power Feed spares? I've found a US one but the shipping and import duty will double the price of what I need and a couple of hours of web searching has not shown any encouraging results... They are pretty common on many bridgeport machines
Many Thanks (in Advance) |

3681 forum posts 70 photos | Mark, I too was searching for spares. Align.tw refer you to all the known UK suppliers of drives, none of whome seem to carry anything. I imported them from US via my nephew and I only wanted the yellow rubber push switch covers. |

Windy & Dusty,
As a matter of interest ...
The iPad reports the linked site as "a possible phishing site"
... I have no idea what justification there is for that.

Their home-page appears to be safe

1001 forum posts 49 photos | Link and Homepage link are the same page. This website does not supply ownership information. Someone has bought the domain and is paying to host it., perhaps not through anything Apple control. Just send them an email thats all thats on that site and seems legit.

![]() 23121 forum posts 1360 photos | Jon, With respect ... It may be a false alarm; but the two links do not go to the same page. ... it's worth reading this paragraph on Wikipedia. MichaelG.

115 forum posts 30 photos | Thanks everyone, I got slightly further in the UKto find that XYZ machine tools have some bits in their webshop including the motor brushes and "big blue zytel gear" that I need. They also have the yellow boot needed by Dusty http://spares.xyzmachinetools.com/KeywordSearchResults.asp?keyword=align&searchGroup=0&Submit=Search http://spares.xyzmachinetools.com/KeywordSearchResults.asp?keyword=zytel&searchGroup=0&Submit=Search Navigating their website is a bit of a challenge but will let you know if they actually have the bits!
