GOOSENECKS
 

 

Custom made goosenecks can be machined from brass per your dimensions.  The mast and boom diameters must be given for the quote.  An approved sketch shall be done before machining. These goosenecks consist of four parts:  The boom connection uses brass tube soldered to the boom hinge. The mast band, pin and main hinge complete the assembly.  Hardware can be provided.  Please call or email for a quote.
