Brake Block Assembly for Omega D, E, and B-series Enlargers

Replacement Elevation Brake Block assembly to fit Omega D-2, D-3, D-4, D-5, and  D-6 4x5 enlargers, E-5, E-6, and Super Chromega E Dichroic 5x7 enlargers, and B-7, B-8, B-9, and B-10 6x9 enlargers. Two styles are available - original and later type.

As shown in the picture below, the Brake Knob on the original assembly has a 1/4" steel shaft with a small nylon tip. This tip will wear, or can break off if the user raises and lowers the carriage without fully loosening off the brake knob. If you continue to use brake knob without the nylon tip, the end of the steel shaft will gouge the chassis rail. On the later type assembly, the Brake Knob has a 5/16" all nylon shaft. It's not likely to break, and while it is possible to wear it out, it definitely won't chew up the chassis rail. We can supply both types - please specify your preference when ordering.

The assemblies are supplied complete, with brake block, brake knob, carriage marker, and link piece, ready to install on the enlarger.
