0.875 inch spacers, do they even exist anymore?

Hello, world!
My team and I are attempting to base our bot off of the Disco bot from Spin Up (2022-2023 series), as it has multiple functions that we are looking to use.
However, upon searching, it appears to require 0.875 inch spacers.
I have scoured the internet for these parts, but haven’t found any site - including the official Vex site - that offers them. Are these parts still made, or do I have to find a substitute?
Thank you!

They are still sold, and still legal.

1/8, 3/8, and 3/8 if you need to know. :slightly_smiling_face:

It’s part of the V5 clawbot kit (used to box brace the arm mount to the chasis) and normal (not super) competition kits


Each kit only has 2, so unless you plan on getting a lot of kits, you’re going to have to find another supplier (would be nice though having 7/8’’ spacers sold seperately)

Yes, they do exist. McMaster-Carr sells them in various ODs: McMaster-Carr

Well, I doubt we’re going to end up being able to purchase either of the kits lol, we need to save money, so it looks like we’re going to have to go with this solution

Thank you! :3

This may actually be a better solution, since it doesn’t cost $800, and they appear to be VEX legal.
thank you!
