DB cap chrome

Regular price $999.00

Early Dodge Brothers radiator caps were generally cog style knurl with a slight dome.  The caps had internal threads to mate to the 2"-18 tpi necks.

They were originally offered in a bakelite finish but many of our customer have requested chrome over brass so we offer that finish with or without a hole for the motometer.

Bakelite is a phenol-formaldehyde resin, formed from a condensation reaction of phenol with formaldehyde. The phenol and formaldehyde are derived from coal tar and wood alcohol e.g. methanol.  High costs, complexity of production and a brittle nature caused bakelite to fall out of fashion but we still love the look.  We achieved a similar finish with an aluminum alloy and a protective ceramic finish that replicates the looks of the original synthetic resin.

This will also fit Cleveland and Moreland Trucks
