What are the grommets used on the metal covered APU insulation blankets called and where can I get some them? I have spent a few hours trying to find these things and have had zero luck.
They do not have holes in them, they are like capstans because you can lace a safety wire around them and use that to hold blankets around the hot sections.

I found the major manufacturer if these blankets, thermal structures Inc.
Sadly 25 of these cap stand grommets run $100
So I will be posting a how to to make these yourself, I think they look nicer than header tape used on exhaust pipes of cars and such.
cnctech, interesting idea, not related to the thread but interesting anyway, pm me if you want to talk about it or send sketches of exactly what you are thinking about
