OEM fitted van bulkheads / cargo barriers
I wonder if anyone can help.
I need to know the thickness of steel used by van manufacturers for their standard / optional bulkheads. I can find info on the web about aftermarket
ones but nothing for OEM.
Does anyone have a van handy and a pair of verniers and could tell me what they have fitted?
BTW, this is work related - I'm not just a sad geek who's into bulkheads!
Many thanks...
Matt.

Doing some tests on resistance to penetration by sharp objects and needed to know what guage sheet to use. I had expected 1.5mm so your info ties in
with that. Many thanks...
