ebinmaine 67,259 #1 Posted February 17, 2020 @Allen2265 requested the measurements for a seat back brace bracket so I figured I would share with the group. Here's an assortment of pics. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,783 #3 Posted February 19, 2020 Anyone know if these are spring steel or just plate stock bent up? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I really can't see a good reason for that to be spring steel. I forgot to measure the thickness. Whatever it was, I would go one step thicker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,783 #5 Posted February 19, 2020 I’d guess 1/4”? Just wondering if they can be reproduced easily... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On the highly accurate carbon fiber composite digital caliper the thick-ocity measures .21 I don't know what gauge that is but obviously halfway between 3/16 and 1/4. Cases like this I would always go on the heavier side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dells68 7,498 #9 Posted February 21, 2020 I’m not sure of the material, but I have one from another make that I wanted to bend slightly to make it more comfortable and I quickly found that I had to score it with a grinder before it would start to bend and then weld it back up. It was very tough material. I remember thinking it had to be some sort of spring steel. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
