add to below "fender welting" - mostly not used now, but my older cars all
have it to go between fender and body - reduces squeak, keeps water out of the joint - wethers and disintegrates so you have an excuse to remove the fenders and do it over again. "larry g" wrote in message ... A fender washer was used back in the thirties to sixties cars to allow a large mounting hole to be built into the fender of the car to give it some adjustability at assembly. A typically 5/16" bolt would go through the fender washer, and a corresponding rubber washer, the fender and screw into the body. The OD of the fender washer was in the 1 1/2" range and is thin to allow it to form to the application, not flatten the fender if it is curved in that area. The rubber is a gasket to help keep water at bay. The bolts usually had a flanged head with serrations to lock it in place. If your looking for structure then your not looking for fender washers. lg no neat sig line wrote in message ups.com... what is a fender washer? in which situation is it used? |
