Description

Cartridge Rod Holding Plate 13.00–14.00mm

Brief Overview

This stainless steel cartridge rod holding plate is a purpose-built accessory for technicians working with suspension cartridge components in the 13–14mm diameter range. The fork-style design securely grips and stabilizes rods during disassembly, service, and reassembly operations—eliminating slippage and protecting component surfaces from damage. If you work across multiple suspension sizes, consider pairing this with alternative-size cartridge rod holders or a combination fork tube and cartridge rod tool to cover your full range of applications.
