Most towers are silver coloured, the black ones I have are vending tower ones www.vendingtower.com/

Re: The quality of new towers!
I would agree completely!!
I have had 12 old black clenport machines for about 2 years now and I have only had one of them break, which had a tubz vending tub jammed in it, and I ended up cross threading the centre locking nut trying to get it off (so probably more my fault than the machine).

Re: The quality of new towers!
Clenports have a two piece centre rod. on the inside of the back plate there is a centre line bisecting the criss cross pattern. All newer models have a single piece barrell (this reduces jamming even further).

Re: The quality of new towers!
Hi, Ihave just come across this post.
Does anyone know what type of tower tubz vending are selling these days.
Over the past year I have had no fewer than 15 mechs break, all bought from tubz vending. I have over 50 older Towers and have encountered no problems with any of these.
Are tubz vending selling the Chinese rubbish now?

Re: The quality of new towers!
tubz vending supply both Chinease and clenports, if you don't ask for clenports you will probably get Chinese machines.
They are the same price so I will always ask for clenports

Re: The quality of new towers!
If you are buying new you are probably better off getting in contact with clenport and getting a pallet yourselves. As well as the cut the wholesaler is taking you are also paying for two lots of transporting.
