First off , I have a bunch of flipper plungers and coil stops that have some burrs and need to be filed. They are in good shape still, but filing makes them magnetic.
Would this Amazon model do the trick?
Has anyone done this.
Home Depot version most likely would not fit the coil stops.
Quoted from JethroP:I don't see anything in that picture that indicates they need to be filed. Are you getting buzzing when you hold the flippers in? What game is it in?
I have no buzzing. These two were just an example. The others have more burrs and what not.
Quoted from TheLaw:I just use a grinding & wire wheel & never heard of magnetization from it. Is filing diff'rent?
If I file them yes, some magnetizeation.
Quoted from pokerag2:What is the significance of magnetization on these parts? Wear?
It's enough to just make the flipper stay up until hit or flipping the other one.
