Was unable to get new pressure blocks for the Camlocks for the Explorer that I recently purchased second hand. The owner had jammed some pieces of plastic in them to keep em tight. I believe I have come up with a solution for this dilemma. The are three problems with these locks, the nylon lugs on the cam levers wear, the metal pressure plates come away from the rubber and falls out and the pad that presses up against the shafts compresses, the three problems contribute to shaky shafts.
Solution: apply a small amount of araldite to the cam lever lugs that contact the pressure plate (let it dry before you engage) and make sure the coat it smooth and conforms to the shape of the lugs, if your metal plate is loose glue it to the rubber with araldite, if not put a layer of araldite across the top of the plate make sure it is smooth and doesn't sit over the edges (you have to remove the pressure block to do this.) Let it set hard. Then turn it over so that the face that contacts the shaft is facing up, apply a small amount of silicone to cover the contact area maybe 1-1.5 mm thick in the general shape of the block face and let dry. Put the pad back into the camlock body. Presto, almost as good as new. Just watch when replacing the shafts that the camlock lever is fully open and that the face that contact the shaft is flush with the tube so you don't push the bottom shaft in and force your silicon to give way. Seems to work great, don't know how long it will last if you are constantly pulling your machine down ( i always leave mine set up anyway) but i expect that it will be a while. the silicone is probably the weakest point .
Should work with all minelabs that have Camlocks if you can't find the new pads
