MP10 Center Post Cover

[Delightful Reefer]

Has anyone figured out a way to replace the white center post sleeve on MP10 wet sides?

In my experience, once they start slipping then they start cracking. And, once they’re gone it leads to fairly loud rattling…

Seems silly to pay $40 for a frame assembly from Ecotech just to fix the sleeve.

Hmm I didn't even know it came off. I have 8 MPs and have never seen an issue with any of mine cracking or spinning

They match a similar sized plastic insulator someone on this forum found on Amazon.

Squeeze a tiny bit of silicone in the ceramic tube and slide it back on... I've used this solution many times when the ceramic comes loose.

Heat shrink tubing

The heatshrink option is a temporary fix and is not sustainable.

Think this is my fourth one in three years. Could be from citric acid baths to loosen up corraline every few months.

Trying this for sure, thank you kindly!

A little unknown fact, thats how they secure them during manufacturering.
