Styling strip (left, front)
Left-side front styling strip for the petrol tank, also cataloged as F4235.
This is a styling strip that mounts on the left side of the petrol tank, front position, on Triumph twins. It's the trim piece that runs along the tank shoulder giving the paint job its finished edge - part of the tank badge and strip arrangement rather than a structural part. The catalog also lists it under the older F4235 number, which is the letter-prefix form you'll find in earlier parts books.

This one shows up across a run of tank figures in the shop's records - PETROL AND OIL TANKS, PETROL TANK, and PETROL TANKS - spanning catalog appearances from 1960 to 1965. If you're refinishing a tank and matching trim, it's worth having the front and rear strips on hand together rather than piecemeal, since they're meant to line up as a set on the tank profile.
Given it's a left-side, front-position piece, make sure you're not confusing it with its right-side or rear counterpart when ordering - side and position matter here even though we can't tell you the exact years it fits without checking your specific tank.
