Title: Unicomp and IBM parts interchangeability
Post by: Muh Fugen on Sun, 29 June 2014, 19:40:47

Is it possible to use replacement Unicomp pivot plate & spring assembly (part# PVPLASM) and replacement pointing stick caps (part# 49G2224) on a IBM model M-13 keyboard (part# 13H6705, manufactured by Maxi-Switch in 1998)?

There you go, they have both and should be compatible as far as I know

Pivot plates definitely.  Pointer caps possibly are, but if not they likely carry both styles.  Email them, they'll tell you.
