Robert Todd Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 I have an original Hunter C-17 with adjustable cast iron blade brackets. Recently, I found a group of what I believed were blade brackets for another adjustable C-17 but these are cast brass. When did Hunter use cast brass blade brackets of this style? Thanks.

Andrew Block Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 You're talking about the collar with the thumb screw that you turn and all 4 blades adjust simultaneously? I have never seen cast brass anything OEM from Hunter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Todd Posted April 22 Author Share Posted April 22 They look like similar blade holders that I have on my C-17 but they are cast iron which is why I asked the question. These are not "new" as they have a patina on them. Are they earlier recast? I don't know. That's why I asked the question. Thanks for your answer.

Stan Adams Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I learned a long time back not to ever say they never made something but I’m with Andrew, never seen it from the factory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evan Atkinson Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I’m with Andrew and Stan. I’ve not seen anything factory from Hunter that was cast brass. I think your idea of old repops is a good one. Those would have patina on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Todd Posted April 23 Author Share Posted April 23 Thanks, again, guys. I didn't even notice they were brass when I first bought them. I just knew what they were. When I did finally notice the brass, it got me to thinking. They are really pretty nice. Already drilled and threaded. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
