Hi,

The rubber pad for the print hammer  is mushy on my recently acquired
ASR33 teletype.  What is the best way  to replace this rubber pad?  Are
these rubber pads available?  So  far, the printhead looks uninjured.

Thanks!

Barry,
 
Its 7/16 OD 5/16 ID vinyl tubing.  Cut 7/8 inch long.  Remove  ribbon.  
Clean old rubber hammer off best you can.  Warm the new  hammer in your fingers 
and slide all the way on to the bottom of the "T" of the  metal hammer with 
the slight curve facing the typewheel.
