Abstract
A method of making a thermal barrier component includes the steps of fabricating a first heat-conductive part having spaced transverse first and second projections, fabricating a second heat-conductive part having a transverse flange, moving the heat conductive parts toward each other so that the flange moves into the region between the projections, so that retaining portions on the flange end projections move into engagement and yieldably resist movement of the heat-conductive parts away from each other, and so that outer ends of the projections firmly engage respective surface portions on the second heat-conductive part, thereafter applying to the heat-conductive parts a thermal barrier material which extends between and is fixedly coupled to the heat-conductive parts, and thereafter machining away a central portion of each of the projections.
