The original clamshell pad (E8TZ1A477A) isn't available, so I made a sleeve from a 2"-wide strip of plastic. I coiled it, stuffed it into a pipe, heated & then cooled the pipe to set the coil shape in the strip. After cleaning the swingaway arm, I glued the strip down and wrapped it as tightly as possible. Once the glue cured, I used a torch to melt the end of the strip back onto the previous wrap so it can't come loose.

Recently, a polyurethane replacement has become available. Energy 4.9106G
