Can I restore it to the same position

is it broke?, and it want to repair with Grado lab
or it's normal, can restore to the same position

I don't know much about Grado Phone
and never know about this condition

Please help me, How to solve this problem
- send to Grado Lab to Repair

Put a little glue on the metal below the hole (near the tip) and push it in firmly to the plastic till it feels like it's all the way in. Wait for glue to dry before using

"Glue" seems to be the magic word with Grados.

wow..........why it's easy way
what type of glue can fix it


first time, I think, it use with little screw of other etc.
it's only use "Glue"

Try finding a tube of Krazy Glue or a glue that is of equal strength, usually you can find it at your local department or hardware store. If not you can purchase it online. Follow the instructions on the label of the glue carefully as glues of that strength will bond anything including skin permanently. I don't believe Grado will repair a damage that isn't a manufacturing defect but caused rather by the user.

Ha Ha

I can do it
it can fix in the same position
and like new out of the box

thanks for everyone

I would use high strength plastic epoxy for a longer lasting fix. the bonding it has with plastic and also steel is far superior to crazy glue. simply mix equal parts for a minute and apply. krazy glue is good where flexibility is not an issue, this application would most likely crack apart and fail after a few uses.

No it wouldn't unless you're planning on really flexing the headband assembly everytime you put the HF-1's on or accidentally sat on them. I've used Krazy Glue on many applications where there was a great deal of flexing (much more than those associated with a headphone headband assembly) and never once did it fail or where the bonded pieces came apart.

I used super glue on my grados and they haven't broken since with some very rough usage
