Default What is it?

I just had some parts replaced on my HVAC system.

Can you identify this part?

Frank

It looks fairly thick, like boiler plate material. With the Hi-temp adhesive in your hand, I'm confused, unless you are repairing or reattaching a bracket or handle to say a damper. Pure guesswork.

Well, I don't know Frank's background, but if he were in the South, I would say that it's a "doohickey."

Yeah, but Monday was a holiday. Of course, Frank is in the South. Do they take MLK day as a holiday down that way?
