Description: | Copper alloyPossible belt fitting. Slightly bent rectangular plate, bearing two rivet-holes (of diameter: 2.05mm) at one end along with a wider semi-circular opening. A mechanical function is suggested by a ratchet formed by six rectangular steps, set along one face of the fitting. These are each formed with a graduated thickness so as to engage and hold another adjustable element between them - the gripping mechanism resembling that of a jubilee clip. The ratchet mechanism is damaged at the end furthest from the rivet holes and perforation.Length: 34.99mm, Width: 12.05mm, Thickness: 2.01mm. Weight: 3.9gms.
