Steel Clock Arbor with Lantern Pinion – Fly Governor – 1-1/8” – New Old Stock
This steel clock arbor with lantern pinion functions as a fly governor, a critical component in mechanical clock movements that regulates the speed of striking or chiming mechanisms. By controlling airflow resistance, the fly governor slows the gear train to ensure smooth, evenly spaced strikes or chimes. Without a properly operating fly, a clock’s strike sequence can become rushed or erratic.
Manufactured from durable steel and sourced from limited new old stock inventory, this part is no longer in production. Once sold, it cannot be restocked, making it an essential and increasingly hard-to-find component for accurate clock repair and restoration.
