Are you going to pintastic? I need to order some stuff and could save on shipping.
Quoted from jrio101:Are you going to pintastic? I need to order some stuff and could save on shipping.
I second that. Would love to pick up some Titan stuff at Pintastic.
Quoted from jrio101:Are you going to pintastic?
Unfortunately no. I'd really like to. Being a husband/wife business with kids has that disadvantage.
my strikes and spares will be in the free play area, it is fully converted over to white titan rubbers if anyone wants to test them out.
Quoted from EricHadley:Finally did my GoT LE in Yellow! So purty!
Great thing about GOT, especially the pro, you can do a game with not much more than a sample pack. Haha
Quoted from EricHadley:Finally did my GoT LE in Yellow! So purty!
I'm bringing this game over to my friends, James and Tricia, this weekend so they have it for the summer to play. I need room for AFMr and they love pinball, so it's a win-win. They get GoT and I don't have to sell it!
Just finished adding Titans to my Fathom during a playfield swap. I did partially cut one of the rings against a ball guide when I was installing it (some of those posts are spaces really close to the guides), but it is holding up so far and hidden under a plastic anyway
Shapeshifter What was your order number? I'll send them to you.
Hey Pinside! I just wanted to let everyone know: Orders placed after noon on Wednesday, 6-21 will not ship until Tuesday, 6-27.
Thanks!
There are 2 different cross-section sizes for a 3/8" I.D. ring - 3/16" and 1/4". Any future consideration for making the 1/4" available? The 3/8" I.D. silicone on modern Stern games look odd (too thin) in comparison to the stock rubber ring.
Just tried a complete set of these on my Williams Comet. I like them so far. Can't tell a big difference between these and rubber.

Off the top of my head with my limited experience . . .
- Last longer
- Keep shape better
- Won't deteriorate/decompose
- Stay cleaner / easier to clean
- Vibrant colors with consistent play
- All of the above while playing similar to rubber
Now, you always will have originalists who prefer rubber, and that's okay. Otherwise, Titan set the bar for bands!

I can tell by the texture, they will be easier to clean, which is a huge plus. Hopefully they'll keep some of the crud/dust on the playfield to a minimum as well.
Quoted from Titan_Pinball:The white bulk kit uses 10 of the 7/16" OD post bumper rings. I'm out of those as well and expect them at the same time.
What is the status on the white 7/16" OD rings?
Also - any ETA on 2-1/4" rings for early Stern?
All out of stock rings should be here tomorrow, Friday June 30!
2-1/4" rings are on order but could take as long as 90 days since it is a new size for us.

Great news!
Will place order as soon as you post the7/16" OD's in white on the site. Love the Titan rings!!
Fingers crossed that shipment includes all the clear rubbers on back order like the 3/16 id. Hoping to clear out my back order cart and get a shipment going. Love your products!!!

It sure does! We are ramping up our inventory levels as we grow. I have a new storage space in a shared warehouse that will allow us to keep more inventory.
Thanks for the compliments guys!
Quoted from Titan_Pinball:So.... I got rings a day early... and they are all checked in!
EVERYTHING should be back in stock. Pinside is always the first to know.
Excelent! Release the hounds...
Ordered my Seabitch rings! Thanks........
Love this product and company!! Placed my order for the clear ring conversion. Only plea is the 5/16" ID clear still show as out of stock so I just made them GITD (4). I am in No rush for my order so If possible I would Love it if you changed those to clear. If not no big deal. Thanks for the amazing service and hope you both have a Wonderful holiday!!

Quoted from Yelobird:the 5/16" ID clear still show as out of stock
Oh man... did I ever screw up.. I missed white and clear 5/16" on this last huge ring order. I'll try to dig up 4 of them for you.
I placed a rush order last night. Hopefully just a couple weeks....

Is that a "no" I don't hear?
Quoted from sudsy7:Is that a "no" I don't hear?
I had to look into that one.
At 7/16" ID and smaller the cross section does go to 5mm [.197"]. All rings 3/4" and larger are 6.35mm [.250"]. This is mainly to accommodate SS and EM where the lanes at the top or other areas were too tight to use 1/4" cross section. I had not been asked this before, but we keep track of these comments and requests. There are no current plans to produce a thicker ring at the smaller sizes but who knows in the future.
Quoted from Titan_Pinball:At 7/16" ID and smaller the cross section does go to 5mm [.197"].
Not exactly. The Stern manuals are calling out 1/4" cross section for the 3/8" I.D. I notice the difference every time I "re-silicone" Stern games.
Quoted from sudsy7:At 7/16" ID and smaller the cross section does go to 5mm [.197"].
I meant our rings. They were designed that way to accommodate EM and SS machines.
Quoted from Titan_Pinball:Those will be bumpers specifically for TOTAN. ETA fall of 2017. So much for surprises!
In the meantime, I believe a 3/4" bumper might work although it will be short. The TOTAN bumper is almost twice as high.
I hope You will make the TOTAN in a few colors. Yellow doesn't really work for me. New discs are in production and will be in factory red new clear and blue I believe Rick said and purple.
I'd love Purple posts for Totan Lamp!
Thanks
Quoted from Titan_Pinball:Red, Blue, Yellow, Purple and Translucent are all planned for the TOTAN posts.
I wish i could give you 2 thumbs up!
We don't make a 1-3/4" ring yet. We are still on the fence on that size because we haven't found an instance where a 2" won't work instead.

That explains it! Will give a 2" a try.
My order arrived Super fast and perfect as always! Even corrected my incorrect selection without delay. Like with Any company I Truly appreciate when quality/service/support is the Primary focus even at the cost of profit. In my opinion thats why companies like this and Pinball Life will be around our hobby for a Long time.... Need to go rubber my machine now! Thank you!
Thanks Titan for the great customer service! I had an issue with a couple of silicon post sleeves and contacted them to see if I could get a few replacements in my next order. They sent me, free of charge, a large handful of replacements as well as a full set of standard post sleeves just in case those work better.
Love your stuff...time to restock....
Need 1 3/4" ring clear for my BM66LE turntable
Need 2 1/4" clear for my tron slings
Do you have these sizes?
I'll add to my order of pinballs and some standard sizes....thanks....mark
We didn't have quite enough interest in 1-3/4" to get it made just yet but it is still at the top of the list of future sizes. 2-1/4" is in production right meow... should be here mid September in most colors. It should fit Tron and most other stern slingshots perfectly!
So I have a question.
I purchased an order for my Meteor before the company changed hands. I just placed my second order beginning of this month, which was only flipper rubbers.
The flipper rubbers I got in this order are deader and shinier - these really look like super-bands. Was there a change in the manufacturing process? Or did I order the wrong bands?
