Lid/Dustcover Kit to fit Technics SL-1200MK2 Turntables/Record Players

 

See the pictures for how well it suits the 1210MK2!

 

This is a clear acrylic lid plus hinge kit for Turntables.  It was originally made to fit another well known Japanese Branded turntable but since many/most turntable plinths had similar dimensions, this has been found to be ideal for replacing lost/broken covers or as part of a record player build/restoration.  The brand (Audio Technica) is printed onto the small centre label (see picture) and if you can't live with this, it can be removed or covered with a bit of care.

 

This will fit the superb Technics SL1210Mk2 when used with the hinges and hinge mounts which are supplied.  As shown in the pictures, the original Technics hinge mounts are removed and replaced by the ones supplied using the original screws and using the upper two fixing holes in the mounts.  This makes for a very good good looking and good value dust cover at around one third the cost of the Technics one.

 

 

 

The lid is a properly moulded item  (not of the cheaper 'blown' or fabricated from sheet variety)

 

Dimensions are:

443mm x 347mm x 69mm (measured externally)

The general thickness of the acrylic is just over 3mm.  The lower edge (ie the edge which is in contact with the record player) is 4mm all round

 

If you are planning to use this kit on a different make or model, please measure your plinth and check that these dimensions will be satisfactory and then contact us for confirmation.

 

 

 

The lid comes complete with a pair of hinges and a pair of hinge mounting bases.  The hinges are compatible with the lid - fitting into a formed 'pocket' on the rear face, and the hinge bases can be screwed to the rear of the turntable plinth.  This allows the lid to be opened with the hinges supporting the lids weight; or removed completely simply by lifting off.
