Profurl Drum Cage Locking Screw on 2040-parts.com
Decatur, Georgia, US
I have 2 drum cage locking screws. One is used to fasten the tangs to the drum. The shorter one is used to fasten and secure the tang on the upper assembly(halyard).
We just finished a trans Pacific trip to Australia. On the Tuamotos to Tahiti passage both of the longer screws backed out and left us with a loose system. I ordered some replacements
when we got to Tahiti and a few spares. The price was right at $28.00 each. They might be made of titanium. I believe there are 2 fasteners for each tang and 1 fastener for the upper halyard drum fitting. Our profurl system was a NC42. These fasteners will also fit a lot of other Profurl rigs. The NCI 42, LCI 42, and LC 42. Probably more. The profurl part number is P035013. It is good to have spares for these parts! Even lock tite doesn't always secure them.
Sorry, I will not be able to get these out before July13th. Thanks.

Lotus gets a new boss – former Citroen Peugeot President Jean-Marc Gales
Fri, 02 May 2014Jean-Marc Gales left) new Lotus CEO with Aslam Farikullah Following the debacle of Dany Bahar’s grandiose plans to turn Lotus in to a cross between Aston Martin and Ferrari, owners DRB-HICOM/Proton have been busy trying to get ship Lotus back on an even keel. That started with the appointment of engineer Aslam Farikullah as chief operating officer at Lotus when Bahar got his marching orders, and he’s been busy for the last two years bolting Lotus back together, cutting costs, improving quality and increasing sales. Now, it looks like Lotus are readying themselves for the next stage of their recovery – which will include new models – as former PSA president Jean-Marc Gales is appointed as Lotus CEO to work with Aslam Farikullah.
