Default 30 Original type dist

Anyone know the dimensions of the steel spacer which goes under the top plate and connects with pigtail? Brattons catalog page 79 item #20 on the exploded view. TIA Have a good weekend

I only have one out right now and I don't know if it's original or a repro part.

ID = .175"
OD = .408"
Thickness = .094"

This only brings the surface to the same level at the bottom side of the upper plate, so you will need to use the fiber insulation washer under the flag terminal.

William, I've spend a lot of time trying to find a supply of these washers on various web sites without any luck, it's an odd size and must be another one of Henry's exclusives for lack of a better word. If you want to buy some try A&L, they have them at 15 cents each otherwise you will need to have them made by someone.

Why would you spend a lot of time searching if A & L has them for 15 cents? Wayne

Snyders have them by the dozens, A-12199-MB, Brattons do not sell them separate only in a kit, originals were fiber.
