Restored Swf Sema4s, OG Lenses: Set 4   Price: $639US ship to US
TARIFFS: Since Aug29/25 tariffs are in place and are based on country of origin (where item is made). For parts made in Germany, the tariff and customs brokerage fees amount to 20% and MUST BE PREPAID by me, the seller. I use DYK post (Your US Post Office in Canada). I print and pay for the USPS shipping label, insurance and tariffs. Parcel is taken to DYK post, its trucked to USP{S in Montana where it enters the system.

I WILL PAY 50% of the applicable Tariffs. I have not raised my prices.

This is SET # 4. Here we have one pair of SWF 111 953 021D semaphores:

--Near NOS SWF logo lenses

--New bulbs, new bulb wires, new springs
--Arms prepped and primed.
--Pistons plated in nickel

$639U shipped and insured to US

Pay by Wise: no extra charge
Pay by PayPal add 4%


WHY BUY SEMAPHORES FROM MATT"S PARTS

• First, we strive to start with only the best premium used semaphores. You can be sure of high quality parts from the lenses, arms, bodies and coils. We do not cover up garbage. Occasionally we have a budget set of semaphores for sale and are upfront about any imperfections.
• Second, all work is done by me personally except for bead blasting and painting arms and plating the bodies and pistons.
• Once semaphores are disassembled we:
--Plate pistons in hard nickel except if they are in NOS condition.
--Plate the bodies in clear cadmium
--Clean the solenoids, recover them in cotton and then treat the cotton with multiple layers of clear electrical lacquer. We spend more time on the coils than most others spend on a full restoration. They will not shrink or fall off.
--Clean and polish the lenses by hand and use only original lenses.
--Install new springs on SWF semaphores, the return spring that winds around the hinge pin is made by hand in stainless steel wire as is the large U shaped retainer spring for the pin upon which the piston linkage pivots. The spring from the hook end of the piston linkage to underside of the arm is also new.
