Andrew Walker Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 Can anyone suggest a supplier for the heavyer duty type of Velcro that doesn't have the hooks but has more of an 'arrow' head design. It connects together in a more positive 'Lego' brick manner than the normal hook type. I want it with peel-off sticky back in order to attach an ECU to a vertical surface. Thanks.

Steve-B Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 some fabric stores carry them in long rolls. that's a great source, as well as better quality iron mongers Steve 210Bhp Sinister Version-VHPD here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony pashley Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 I know the stuff you mean, Andrew - I have a chunk holding the ignition pack on. There are several varieties - the 'coarsest' one really is like Lego! A place to start looking might be this page at RS here There is a type where the 'base' strip and the hooks are all molded rather than the base being woven - so it doesn't get soggy if wet. (Sorry to be a haberdashery nerd). Edited by - tony pashley on 25 Apr 2003 18:00:46 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mav Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 Andrew, I have some industrial strength hook tyoe, that i can suspend mysef from a vertical surface with, using a 1" square. How much do you need and when for? Oh, People on here taht know me will testify that this means it is really grippy stuff 😬 Martin 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony pashley Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 Yeah, but Andrew won't be wanting to rip the scuttle off when he needs to remove the ECU!! I can see a spectacular 'testimonial' ad in this, Martin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Walker Posted April 25, 2003 Author Share Posted April 25, 2003 Thanks for all of your help. Ex-Chairman Roger has come to my rescue and is mailing me a strip of the stuff. Martin, the stuff you have sounds great, what do you use it for 🤔 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mav Posted April 26, 2003 Share Posted April 26, 2003 I'v borrowed it from Work, where we use it to fix cat 5 outlets into cabs with no fixing holes. I currently havr the soft part fixed along the to of the sideskins to 'cushion' the bonnet & stop the rattles, and to fix the bullet cam to the nose cone. If you need more, let me know.
