Bayonets on the Dent Machine? Oh, Yeah!Balls, Wheels? What IS the difference?I don't know How or Why we adopted the 5/8" bayonet mount for all the dent machine balls (?) and wheels, over 40 years ago, but we did! A few years ago, we decided that anything smaller than 3" would be called a 'ball'; and anything larger than that a 'wheel', because they had a 'spoke' across the inside for the bayonet mount to go in. If fact, one of them has changed from a wheel to a ball, over the years due to production changes.The 'balls' aren't really balls either, because they are not really round, they are barrel shaped; although they are kind of round to look at. But, the working surface is a much bigger radius than shows. That said; here is a list of part numbers so you can complete your set. ALL STEEL! -Part# - - Size- -Price- -Notations- (Balls) Z61-5B 1.062" $37.50 Std. Eqpt. w/Z61 Z61-9A 1.25" $42.50 new 4/1/02 Z61-9B 1.50" $42.50 new 4/1/02 Z60-5A 1.75" $43.50 Std. Eqpt. w/Z60 Z61-9C 2.00" $44.50 new 4/1/02 Z61-3C 2.375" $47.50 Std. Eqpt. w/Z61 Z61-9D 2.875" $47.50 new 2/28/02 (wheels) Z60-3B 3.50" $76.50 Std. Eqpt. w/Z60 Z60-23 4.50" $82.50 new 7/1/01 Z60-3A 5.50" $89.50 Std. Eqpt. w/Z60 All the above "dent balls" and "burnishing wheels" mount with the standard Ferree's 5/8" type "bayonet mount". NOTE: All the REAL Round Balls (N80C, N80D & N80E) will now fit your Z60 dent machine by using the New Z60-14 rod (Standard equipment since 2002) with the Z60-14B (3/8" threads) or Z60-14C (1/2" threads) inserts. You CAN have YOUR old Z60-14 rod modified; see "Rod Mod" under 'Services'). All new Z60/Z61/Z61E dent machines have come standard with the new Z60-14 rod since its introducton. Another "volkswagen change".
