    Does anybody have any Tether Spout retainers for sale please? I ordered a 26Ff and in ‘rubber’ then made by own in 316 but I think these are too small.
    I’d be interested in ether rubber or stainless…
    Thanks!

    @zorglub, I understand, may be able to make you one. Only from what I hear so may be wrong.

    These have shown up on Amazon lately... Not from the original source, but a very similar version... I can't figure out how to 'secure' the outside as it appears to be a 1st generation concept for those selling them. There is a pair of small holes on either side of the 'tube' but anything passing through it would block fluid from passing down the center.... Anyway, we were curious enough to spend $15 on one to at least experiment....

    Thanks for that! I actually made another one a few days after posting. It’s 1.5mm bigger on the OD but same width. I was going to try it but then my wife told me to put my cage back on, that was 13 days ago… :rolleyes:

    Get them in titanium from “Zorgy” on FetLife. (You have to send him a PM.) There are reports of eventual build-up on the inside of the original spouts because the surface wasn’t smooth. And stuff from China .... well ... who knows???

    Thanks! Don’t know how that insertion tool thing is supposed to work!
    Looking forward to trying my own but currently not sure when that will be…

    I am Zorgy on Fetlife and Zorglub here (Zorglub was taken on Fet). Same person. I do make titanium spouts and retainers on demand, as well as other related parts. PM for details.
    However, although my spouts' shaft sizes are similar to those sold by TetherProducts.com (the inventor of the TetherSpout technology), I do not recommend mixing the two. In particular, my spouts' flanges are smaller and are therefore not suitable for use with flexible non-metal retainers. In addition, titanium is a more cathodic metal than 400-series stainless steel and it would eventually cause galvanic corrosion on a TetherProducts' metal retainer in the presence of an electrolyte (such as urine).
