In order to make it easier for our end user customers, following many requests, we have decided to replace old codes with better ones for our popular wheels.
The old product code, to make transition easier, will still be printed on the product packaging.
Here is how it works:
We have taken the three important dimensions (diameter, width, hub thickness), and used them to create the code.
For example, our wheel WH1110-Al is 17.3mm diameter, 8.2mm width, 1.5mm hub: it becomes W17308215A
W for wheel diameter in mm 17.3 --> 173 width in mm 8.2mm --082 hub thickness in mm 1.5mm -- 15
A for aluminium
Another example:
old code PA17-Pl (15.8*8.2*2.5mm)
new code W15808225P
W = wheel
158 = diameter
082 = width
25 = hub width
P = plastic
Thus, starting from today the codes for the following will be replaced as explained above.
We believe that this change will make things easier for everyone - even if we understand that there will be some initial perplexity.
To minimize this, the stickers on the bags will carry BOTH old and new codes.
Effective January 2017 all Slot.it wheels will be coded according to this rule.
