Long thin rectangle: 3" x 1-1/16"

All dimensions to outer edge of metal.

Thanks Brain

Much appreciated. I'm getting a copy made for my Wire-3 box.

Jordan, have you considered getting extra tag blanks made? I could be interested in a tag to use for my 15 cwt trailer as the original is pretty beaten up (particularly around the mounting holes). It might be worth getting the engraver to do the C broad arrow as most don't have a stamp to do that but individuals could stamp the body/vehicle codes to suit their needs. I'm guessing the "422" identifies the plant or inspector or similar as it also appears on my tag.
