Hot C85-12 Baffling Felt Question

[astjp2]

I already surf thru those. Alot of them don't have capacity to stitch thru metal. The few I have found have been on the other side of the country.

The book binding ones should, if you use a 30 series or a 60 series that is not too hard, they should work. The ones near me would do 1/8" thick paper which has to be gawd awfully tough to penetrate.

its the head rating for wire size thats the problem. most the book binding ones use thin wire like .020. Need a head that is for doing sign work, those use a much thicker wire.

Gary, I am not fond of anything that rubs on the cowling, rivets to hold the silicone folts always seems to rub holes from what I have seen . I just cut and let the air pressure hold it.

On my Taylorcraft I used small nylon ties to hold the RTV-folds until it cured then removed them. On the PA-11 I put a dab of RTV over the sunk-in rivets, but yes nothing that could cause wear is best. One of my mechanics prefers felt and keeps it clean as it will eventually collect abrasive dirt.
