Brand New Hot dipped Galvanised RHD Bulkhead.
These are one of the best if not THE best quality bulkheads on the market. We are the only company that presses each component in one stage. Other companies will press each fold or indent one stage at a time which is slow (hence why we can do these at such a good price) and also leads to inaccuracies.
This is compatible for Defender models 1998-2001 (Early Td5 before they facelifted the dashboard in 2001)
These are made completely in house by us in our factory in England.
Every pressing is exactly as original. This is not to be confused with some others on the market which are made from multiple smaller bits folded and then welded and ground ground into shape.
For example, the main inner and outer upper pressing is pressed completely in one go. We are the only company making these bulkheads other than Land Rover themselves, that presses these comepltely in one go. Not only does mean it is as per factory spec, it also improves the accuracy of the part as less room for error.
The footwells have the correct ribs pressed in them exactly as the factory item.
Every little pressed indent, or recess, as factory, no matter how trivial they are, are pressed exactly the same as original.
We have gone for a single skin on the footwells as using double layer is just asking for trouble as these parts are always the most vulnerable part of the bulkhead. Double skinned footwells have an increased chance of not getting fully galvanised between the layers, the holding of moisture and dirt between the layers and the ultimate rusting out.
We have increased the thickness of the footwells as well as pressing the strenghening ribs in them, to ensure they are still as strong as orginal, but without any of the risk of rust.
This bulkhead is the perfect combination of being pressed exactly as original but without the double skinned footwells which is the weakness of others.
Unlike others available, all of the threaded holes are free and clear of zinc so not time wasted retapping threads. Every bracket is attached to the bulkhead that you may require so makes fitting these a lot simpler and quicker than others.
The reason we can do these at such good quality but also a fantastic price is because we have funded the tooling for these completely on our own and in house. We have no investors to answer too.
Options Explained:
Bulkhead Finish?
Galvanised – The bulkhead will come to you with a hot
dip galvanised finish, well known for its excellent anti corrosive properties, providing
the best coating possible to prevent rusting in the future.
Bare Steel Finish – The bulkhead will come in bare
steel, this can be the perfect option if you are still unsure what finish you
want for your bulkhead yet, or if you need to weld custom brackets to it &
then finish it to your preference.
Packing Options?
Triple Ply Cardboard Box – The bulkhead will arrive
in a 3 – Ply cardboard box, this is a very cost effective and safe way to have
the bulkhead arrive. The corners end up with 9-12 ply (layers of cardboard) due
to overlaps so it is a very strong unit overall.
Wooden Crate – The best way to have your bulkhead
sent, mandatory if its being shipped outside
of the UK. The crate is fully solid from top lid to bottom and can have smaller
items put inside it to.
Type of Bulkhead Vent?
Original Style Open Vents - As original, these are
the vents that open, were you would then fit your fly mesh and vent flaps to.
Puma Style Solid Vents - This option provides you with the solid puma
style vents so you can have the look of a later model and still fit the bulkhead
to your earlier vehicle.
As with any hot dipped galvanised item, there may be lumps, bumps, rough areas or areas that are more textured than other areas. This is completely normal and in line with any galvanised item. Naturally they do take more prep time than a non galvanised bulkhead. Again the same with any galvanised product.
