Product Information

Manufactured from 6061-T6 aluminum, these Alloy Thin-neck inserts features a male-to-male threaded format with matching threads at both ends.  Historically, the thin-neck lightsaber design presents a unique aesthetic aspect and engineering challenge.  These insert designs prioritize strength and security offering a 6mm Neck Insert Thread length and a 45degree friction chamfer that locks the neck to the base while redirecting force.  Asymmetric insert profiles further the aesthetic legacy; users will find the matching thread ends provide two neck options in a single insert by simply changing the orientation of the insert.  A raw finish allows for user customization through etching, weathering or other surface treatments.

Technical Considerations

Due to the reduced diameter of the neck section, these components require careful consideration of internal component placement.  Due to VHC form factor limitations, users making a bold thin-neck designs that deviate from current standards may require chassis modification or a custom chassis to accommodate.  We recommend using a pre-existing thin-neck core with pigtail and adapting it to your purpose.  Corvus Saber Foundry is not responsible for damages to chassis due to user modifications.  Fortune favors the bold.  Good luck.

Compatibility

Alloy components are designed to interface with known form factors, dimensions, as well as meet or exceed material strength of LGT/Nexus/Damiensaber VHC and TXQ Modular systems.  Specifically, Alloy components are manufactured from a higher strength aluminum alloy which provides enhanced durability and strength.  Integration and use with other Corvus Saber Foundry Alloy components and other similarly compatible third-party parts is supported and encouraged!  

Safety and Usage

This thin-neck lightsaber components are intended for light choreography.  While our design features a 200% increase in insert thread lenght, and a 33% increase in thread wall thickness compared to competitors as well as a friction-locking chamfer, users are advised to exercise caution during handling to avoid heavy impacts or strong blade binds.  We believe these necks are suitable for dueling, testing is on-going, as always duel at your own risk.
