Default FE Stainless Header Tank Update

Hi all,

Quick progress update on these. The press tooling is complete. Needed a few tweaks but overall very happy with the quality. Stainless is not the easiest to press! The assembly jigs are about complete and we are now testing the laser welding process at the moment, then onto powder coating.

Should be receiving 4 samples in the next couple of weeks. They are sending 2 in raw stainless so we can carefully inspect all of the welds and detail, as well as 2 in satin black powdercoat. I've had an enquiry for raw anyway as some may want to polish them. We'll sell them off at a reduced rate once we have inspected them. 2 of them I have a potential buyer with their name down.

Powdercoated Cobra - possibly sold
Raw Cobra - available
Powdercoated standard - available
Raw standard - sold

We'll stock in raw too for adding the puke outlet and also custom colours/polishing.

We're expecting production stock in mid January now

Few pics below. Just in the raw stainless, prior to welding and prepping for powdercoat, but hopefully gives an idea of where we are and the base quality.
