[Help Thread] GAN 356 air GES problem

[QuestionableCuber]

Hey! So long story short my gan 356 air masters has some GES that unscrew I’ve seen some solutions like “replace GES” or “put lube under the GES” what’s the most effective thing or best, heck I might even try both! Please help!

Sounds like the nut is stripped. GES nuts are known to do this, sadly. I've had at least two nuts become stripped on me so far over the dozens of GAN cubes I've dealt with selling at comps. You have no choice but to get a replacement.

 

[QuestionableCuber]

Replacement nut? Because I just ordered those

 

[JakeJake]

shouldn't the GAN come with replacement nuts, because I have the GAN 356 X and it has replacement nuts.

 

[QuestionableCuber]

Well I got my gan air masters at a comp (traded it for a ylm m) and I didn’t get replacement nuts from him

 

[JakeJake]

Oh, maybe the GAN 356 X comes with replacement nuts.

 

[JakeJake]

I will be right back to get a picture of the replacement nuts.

those are NOT replacement nuts, if you turn them into the cube, you will see, that it turns lighter or harder. This is because the spring strength is different, purple are the weakest, yellow the strongest. also, does it look like that, or do you have one clear instead of yellow?
