I'm looking for some lid hinge springs for my Kamado and I think the one for the Safire will fit. The Safire website said there's a dealer in Australia but doesn't mention who it is.
Anyone know the Saffire contact for Australia?

There was a Saffire dealer here, but no longer!
What Kamado is it?
Saffire hinge and BGE were similar until BGE upgraded.

Unfortunately a BBQs Galore product, Good luck getting parts out of them!
I'd try to match it with one from Bunnings although the tension might be different

12x7 , I'm going to upgrade my whole set up on the BGE and you are welcome to the old springs if you want them. They work fine and I'm happy to post them but have to wait until the hinge set arrives as it's currently out of stock. Hopefully it will be here in a week or two.

Thanks Gumb. Please send when you're ready.

Tried using their customer contact email. Still waiting to hear from them.

BBQs Galore near me is one store I can walk around looking at stuff and not be bothered by any sales people even asking me if they can assist ! They are generally too busy having a social chat at the counter.
-
my nearest BBQG is now 15klms away and i live in a major city on that basis i shop elsewhere now.
-
watching with interest, Ive just pulled my Saffire out of storage and need new tables.

Saffire got back to me that there's no Saffire dealers in Australia.
-
Need to find an old one somewhere or ask them to send some via international shipping ?
Other alternative is if you know somebody in the states they can facilitate it for you ?

Same here, Keverton used to be, many years ago.
The complete band kit from BGE is $250, Springs are $15 but not sure if they are right, the older ones were!

I wonder if it's worth sending a broken spring to these guys to see if they have a repalcement to match.

Check out our products and contact us todaywww.jubilee-springs.com.auThe springs on my BGE are 80mm from the tip of each end. They are pretty old so i'm not sure if they'll do the job for you and last.
I'm waiting for a call back about availability of the new BGE hinges. I could also ask them about a set of springs at the same time if that helps.

Once upon a time when everybody used to copy BGE you could interchange bits which is why I figured when Gumb offered to send me his old springs from his BGE they would be good to try on my KJ.
The BGE springs price is about right and similar to the old KJ price and current Saffire US price.
If the experiment with Gumb's springs work I will know I can give you a call to get some BGE springs.

I got a call back today and the replacement hinge set for the BGE is still not here and now not expected for another 4-5 weeks.

Covid is making a real mess of moving things around. Lots of delays all over the place.
