does anyone know what you call the little plastic thingys that you put in the middle of a 45 record to play on a record player so you could play it, it made the hole smaller?

~ i am looking to see if i can find one/some for sale, to try out some 45's i received, any help would be appreciated!!!

If you don't like the little snap-on ones, there are also turntable adapters - a wide plastic disc that slides over the spindle. It depends on what brand of turntable you have, though...

the only word I can think of is "adaptor".......but Im not sure that will work?
here's the link
and here's the picture

If you have a 45rpm record and a 33 rpm turntable. this is for you...

btw: at 25cents each, you cant beat the price

OH - haha - forgot to say that.

The kind that snap on the record are 45 rpm record adapters. The kind that you add to the turntable are called spindle adapters. There are both kinds in the search I posted - like I said, if you decide on the spindle adapter, just make sure to get the one made for your your turntable - if it's not the right kind, it can mess up your motor (too heavy, friction, etc...).
