You can get them with or without the carbide tip. Need the tip. Same as mine and I put dupont slides on too. Barely any wear on them Only a tad at back 6” of slide, where there is no insert. Should be good for 10,000 km’s I would Think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papa Francos and Chucks Roadhouse nearby both are doing dine in or take out. Had a Toppers pizza for the 1st time (delivery), pretty good!

We never had any problems there, but when they closed the pool & then the hot tub w/ an accompanying rate increase each time, we looked elsewhere. We've noticed the last few winters, little or no sledders staying there. I've only stayed @ the Super 8 once (w/ SJ and @apeXMAN ) in 2016. Not thrilled about dealing w/ lugging gear up & down from an upper floor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s pretty good I was averaging about 2000 km’s on stock ones, went thru two sets and now have about 1500 km’s on duponts. You should check yours, since once inserts go they were fast apparantly.
