I need assistance identifying this part!
« on: March 07, 2009, 04:21:57 »
I acquired 3 of these parts in a job lot recently, & have found a use for them so I need a few more for a project that I am working on but I have no idea where they came from, or what they're related to! It has Playmobil stamped on the smooth side, & has a grooved back side as shown in the second picture. Any help in obtaining a part number for this item so I can order them from DS would be greatly appreciated!


Front side with Playmobil stamped on it.


Rear side with slots, & center divider.

In your first picture it looks like a Playmobil bar of soap

I've never seen anything like that before, Bill.  Sorry I can't help.  :(

Could you show it in relation to a klicky to give it some scale?

At present I have no idea if this is something hand-held or to big enough to be stood on.

My first guess would be that it's from the construction, harbor or transport themes, and represents some form of bulk goods to be loaded and carried.

Martin, I think you can get an idea of the size here:

Hmm, my next thought was that they might be the feet for lines of temporary fencing, the pieces being laid with the slots face up and the feet of the fences sliding into the slots, but I can't see any Playmobil fencing on playmodb that matches that description.

I'm about 90% sure those are the insulator blocks for the train isolators set number 4373 and 7082.

EXCELLENT Knight Train  :wow:! I believe you are spot on identifying these pieces  :yippee:! I will check out the availability of part numbers on Heather's site now that I have an idea of what they are  :)9! Thanks to everyone for your assistance  :eh?:! It's amazing to me how we can help each other in situations like this  <:>!
There is one thing about these little parts that is interesting, it couldn't be denied that they were manufactured by Playmobil after seeing the Playmobil name molded into them  :lol:!

Glad someone found them, that's great!  Bill, I've nicked your photos to add to the part page:

30 80 9100 - Isolator for train track

What are the dimensions of these things?  Only millimetres, I expect.
