Hi @eszee, in that case you already have the adapters, and if they are a bit large, often we use duct tape to build up the diameter, or we make up some shims from plastic pipe.

Hi Adrian,

Do your motors require 2 adapters (one at each end)? Or will 1 adapter at the open end suffice?

I just took the drive side of one of our shades apart and there are actually 3 nested adapters in there see photo. From left to right the outside diameter of the drive itself is 0.75", the next adapter adapts up to 1.12" O.D., the next one 1.5" O.D. and the final one 1.875" O.D.

thanks!

Hi, you actually need 3 ... one at each end (idler end and motor end where the crown roller is) and one on the drive adapter that is inside the tube.

eszee:
I see.

It sounds like it won't work then...

Thanks for your help Adrian!

Hi, I checked with our tech and he thinks he may have some that will work. I'll take a look tomorrow and let you know.

Regards, Adrian
