Serated Washers
I understand most (all) of the split washers on the Model A have serated edges. True?

Re: Serated Washers
That is what I have discovered in working on model A's for a long time. I am not sure that ALL lock washers were serrated, but the vast majority sure appear to be.

Re: Serated Washers
Bill: the edges not the biting surface

Re: Serated Washers
I agree with Clem, not Bill. The serrations are on the edge, not the mating surfaces.

Re: Serated Washers
Sounds plausible. I never thought how they were made.

To see chunks of METAL turned into CRANKSHAFTS & CAMSHAFTS, totally by automatic machinery, is almost like "MAGIC"!!! The workers that adjust, sharpen & maintain the equipment, must be GENIUSES, in their own right!!--BE SURE TO WATCH IT! It's amazing to compare it with Fords' early methods. I was amazed to see Ford, pouring hot metal, to cast blocks, while the form was MOVING, on the conveyor!! While working at a Magnesium Factory, during WW-ll, Chief brought home small "TEST CASTINGS" he poured & enlightened me about Magnesium Properties. Bill TVnut Bill Boggled
