    I bought this from an after market provider of parts 5 or 10 years ago. Trouble is I don't recall what it is or what game it is for. It is 15 1/16" x 1". It's a flat piece of stainless with four nuts & bolts and three 1" x 1/2" openings. There is a small hole next to the nut & bolt closest to the end.

    Toss up between a flux capacitor or a self sealing stem bolt.

    And I thought you knew everything pinball, Lloyd. Of course, it may turn out to be a part from my washing machine.

    That is what got me to thinking it isn't a pinball part.

    I'm thinking this part had something to do with masking light bulbs in the bottom of the backbox or back of the playfield area.

    What are the dimensions of this part? What does the flip side look like?

    I loaded a better photo of the flip side above also. It is 15 1/16" x 1". It's a flat piece of stainless with four nuts & bolts and three 1" x 1/2" openings. There is a small hole next to the nut & bolt closest to the end.

    Would make a good paddle for the kids. Or the wife.

    Quoted from SantaEatsCheese:

    Could it be part of a lockdown bar receiver

    Wonder if part of a lockdown bar that had three buttons on top.

    Joe Grenuk, who made these, says they have gone up in value. I never saw these posts identifying the part so I emailed him when I found an old email saying I bought something from him. It also is used on Kings & Queens.
