The Flat end acts as both a stop and a support and can be used in conjunction with many of the other fixture components to create a variety of support and stop assemblies. The Flat end is durable but soft enough that it doesn’t damage the component it is supporting or locating against.
The Flat end has an male thread which can be screwed into any of the other fixture components with an female thread. The pad should be hand tightened into position.
In order to fully appreciate the way in which this component is used we recommend that you view the ‘typical applications page’ in the product catalogue, manual or on our website at http://www.leecosfixture.com
As the Flat end is designed to protect the workpieces surfaces from damage it has a softer surface finish than the majority of the other fixture components and care should be taken when cleaning to avoid scratching the surface.
For general cleaning, a mild soap and water solution can be used applied with a cloth or sponge. For removal of grease or oily deposits methylated spirits can be applied with a cloth or sponge. In both cases the part should be finally rinsed in cold water and thoroughly dried.
