The rubber buffers are carried on a pressing spot welded to and projecting from the front pan. Both buffers are moulded to plates with bolts whose stems project for attaching the buffers and the carrier pressing. The carrier pressing may be made in two halves welded to- gether if it is found to be too difficult to press in one. None of the parts are handed.
