Blaster 701 INDUSTRIES MOUNTS . The Future is here

[701dave]

701 Industries didn't want to be just another mount maker in an already flooded market. I set out to solve the problem of mounts breaking. A huge R&D programme was set in place and after many months of in-house testing and then water testing , I am excited to announce the future of jet ski mounts has arrived.

The way old school mounts are built is to use an alloy base, bond a rubber or alike dampener to it, and then bond on the top threaded washer. This is how 25 years ago, they made the mounts and through the years have tried to improve on a poor design by using stronger glue in the bonding process and bling up the mounting base, but the same old problem still exists.............until now.

My mounts are a full dual urethane motor mount with a billet alloy core. Even though it looks like it is 2 pieces, its actually one piece. The process we use has been developed specifically for this mount. The base is a lot harder than the dampener but as a one piece , it will adsorb vibrations from the top to the very bottom . Nothing has been left to guess work. Endless testing on there purpose built harmonics and sudden impact test bed has resulted in a virtually bullet proof mount that will not let the harmonics reach your hull. Heres the cool thing, there is no glue in this mount to fail. The mount maker we used is one of the worlds leading marine mount designers and manufactures. With their expertise and my determination to solve this problem, I Can now offer for sale a state of the art mount that you will never have to replace, period. These mounts will be landing in the States shortly so if you want to order a colour or for pricing please contact 701chris USA. GAME OVER

701chris usa = nizzit =) We're working out an introductory price to get the product out to the market, we should have it nailed down tonite. Extremely limited run on the intro prices.......get in now if you're interested.

These things looks awesome. I cannot wait to see how well they hold up to the heavy kawi 1100 motor. If they can stand that big thing, they can stand up to anything.

Definitely! I like the fact that these aren't the same designs we have been seeing, they are a whole new design which is what we need to see with new products hitting the market.

 

[McDog]

How are these different from the rhaas mounts? Not trying to be smart about it at all, just curious to know.

 

[zimmy]

These are FULL urethane, not the 3 piece conventional system that has a base plate, urethane section and then the top plate for the bolt. If you look closely at the pictures, the base of these mounts has a shine to it.

ooo cut one open pleeease

There is no glue holding our mounts together. Although it looks like seperate pieces, they are not. the black base is not metal.... it is urethane along with the top colored piece.....all urethane and not seperate pieces. They are poured together. Please reread the description from 701dave....there are more details from him to pick out.

 

[madscientist]

bandsaw one open for us to see the core

 

[OCD Solutions]

Looks good, I'd like to see one cut in half as well as I am seeing details in the pictures that aren't explained fully.

For instance, take the orange and black unit;

- I get that the orange and black are one solid mass consisting of two different materials. Then I see shiny mounting holes. Is this just an imbedded insert to protect the holes? This is an important detail for those who may need to elongate these holes for proper engine alignment.

- now lets look at where the bed plates would attach. There is clearly a metal surface with a threaded hole that is not explained in the above description other than "a solid billet core". What keeps this embedded so it doesn't pull out? What does it's profile look like?

Not trying to be a dick, just curious.

Will try and answer some of your concerns. The stainless steel inserts you see are imbedded in the base for a reason. as the base is urethane and although harder than the dampener its still a soft base. these ss inserts are a precise measurement , so when tighten , creates a exact holding pressure on the base as to the manufactures specifcation. As far as elongateing the base holes to get motor alignment, thats not a option and never will be on these mounts. these mounts are precision built to factory specs, if you had a need to elongate the base holes you are either trying to adapt this mount to another hull or you got some serious issues going on elsewhere. The alum is 6061t alloy is a CNC machined core with many hours of research and field testing put into its design . The shape internally is one of recessed cavities and holes for the urethane to flow in and around. Too extract the core from the mount takes a lot of force and the mount is totally destroyed. You can only buy these mounts in a set as they will never have to be replaced again , feel free to buy a set and cut one open, sometimes when you spend countless hours and thousands of dollars on prototype testing , you just want somethings to remain a trade secret for as long as it can.

 

[OCD Solutions]

Thanks for the answers and I totally understand on keeping the design a secret.

 

[tricky1]

Cant Wait to try a set

 

[ChadGnarly]

Lookin good, price will be determing product. Lotsa sweet stuff comin from down under.

 

[964Chris]

Thanks Chad. We look forward to one day working with you guys if the opportunity presents itself.

I think what they are implying but no one really wants to say is that slotting holes is necessary in some of these crappy @$$
aftermarket hulls that are now being sold, there I said it let the beatdown commence !

I know where your coming from Chad as i always look at what things cost. I just ask people to weigh things up an look at the overall price. some people will look at the end figure and base there purchase on that. there is always products in the market place to cater for that. Unfortunatly for those buyers they are destine to buy again, and will proberly buy the same thing again. These mounts were a cumulation of many years of riding Blasters and replacing poorly designed mounts. for sure if i didnt have in the back of my mind that if after product testing , i may be the only one with these mounts because of cost of production i be lying. For me to end up with a mount that looks awesome, works how a mount is supposed to work , and can bring to market a buy once,never to replace mount that will dial in a few dollars more than another top selling mount, i feel mission accomplished. For the jet skiers who demand the best and want a bit of bling under the hood , and will go the extra bit to achive the highest standard then these are the mounts for them. All mounts will one day be built this way, its up to you, but remember, im not claiming that i will replace your mount when it breaks, im claiming it will not break.

 

[964Chris]

INTRO PRICING: $210 for a full set. super limited quantities. once we have our dealers/distributors established the price will go up to match the quality and r&d put into them. These are the last set of mounts you will ever have to buy.

 

[ChadGnarly]

I really like the idea of a 1 piece mount, rather than relying on glue to keep my motor in place. These will definately be a must in our Rad Dudes blaster 1100 conversions. Looking forward to trying out a set in my mod hull and hopefully a kawi set might be developed in the future.
