Hi,

I have always wondered if this part is compatible with lego technic pin holes.

I have a MOC situation where I need to have an axle thru-hole which also can be meshed with the pinholes of two beams which are 1L apart.

I could use the new technic connector  pinhole with 1L axle on opposite sides, placed sideways with a 3L pin connecting the beams but the connectors axles are too short, hence the need for an axle thru-hole.

Can the sides of part 24122 be placed inside of pinholes? even if it means having to twist it in due to it being a tight fit.

axle joiners or #2 connectors are too long also.

Regards, snipe.

Even if they fit, those ends are not full pins, more like half.

I have also dreamed, that it would be nice to have part like this, that there is axle thru, then pins and/or 1l axles on sides. 

Or this 

with axle-truh in the middle

I don't think it would fit, maybe you could post a photo of what you need it for...

Never mind, I'll just buy some and test it out. in LDD it fits fine. I don't need the connector to click into place like pins do because the connector is sandwitched between two15L liftarms. I don't need to worry about it rotating like pins do because the motors output and axle will prevent that from happening.

Hello,

Maybe you could post a screenshot of your LDD file? This way some of us could probably tell you more about your build.

Regards,

Steph.

 

I don't think the usage of that part is reasonable in technic system like described. Just made a quick test in LDD, You will have uneven offset match, does not fit nor in 1/2 stud nor in 1 stud as usual.

 I recommend to use 27940 or 87082 instead.

Here you can check, it is placed right that deep as just possible. It creates a rather odd offset:

I got it all the way in the pinhole in LDD.

Maybe I was not clear enough, I meant can somebody actually test putting it in a pinhole in real life. I will buy some but want to do when I have more different parts to order.

I'll post the lxf file soon but cannot see much point to it.

regards, snipe

Indeed, LDD allows that, I did not try it all the way, but I see some impact around the perimeter... unfortunately I don't have the parts to test.

I have this part and it does not fit!

High Everyone

I have rather a stupid question. Where the hell is the 24122 Part in LDD? Please help me.

Technic category in Extended Mode. You can use the rounded window to search part by it's ID.

No it's not.

- the cross section is not a circle

- it only fits the 'collar' width of the pinhole
