We got the new bumper hardware from AndyMark that clips over the C-channel and we were wondering if anyone on here knows whether or not “supported” in the game manual means attached to the frame by a bolt or fastener, or just supported by the C-channel? any help would be greatly appreciated
It has to be secured to the frame in such a way that it can’t come off during the expected rigors of FRC gameplay.
If you’re referring to the 8" rule, no, it doesn’t need fasteners every 8 inches. It only needs to be secure enough to not fall off.
Gravity is not enough, you must use some fasteners.
Hi Don, Mentor Mac here. Team 686. Call me back real soon if you can. It’s Monday one day to go. I’m down here at N W high school in Germantown. They have a footpad raise them off the floor to the first bar. Is this Ok. Do they break any bumper rules like bumper zone 2 to 10. My cell phone 240-405-9213
God Bless
