Broken Arms

If GHD's are left on the floor, then they often get trodden on. This can cause the hinge area to snap, or the arm to crack. For example:

This problem is easily repairable, as long as you can get hold of the spare part. For more recent models, this can be a problem, however for older models it's not normally a problem (unless they are SS2's... they are like gold dust at the moment!).

To determine which part you need to:

Work out what model your GHD's are, e.g. GHD3, GHD 3.1b, GHD 4.0B etc. It should say on the label opposite the power switch. If it does not say, then they are probably Pre Mk3's, or an older variation of GHD3.
If you decide they are GHD3, then you'll also need to work out which variation of GHD3 they are. See the GHD3 page for more details.
Work out which arm has broken - whether it's the "Switch Side" or the "Non Switch Side". Obviously the switch side is the one that has the power switch on it and is also the side the cable attaches to. The non switch side is the other one!

We stock various arms on our online shop. If your part is not available, then contact us and we can add you to a waiting list and you will be notified if the part you require becomes available.
