I am trying to remember where I saw a discussion on the plastic Lustran plates for our AC planter. In some article I read, it explained what the X meant.
For example, I have a B0-16, and a B0-24X. I know what all the variable refer to, but I forget what the X means.

Thank you,
John

X means a little larger size holes I think! go to "Lincolnag.com" and maybe they will explain it, or maybe call them and ask.

Shameless,
I just spoke with Lincoln Ag, and they said that the X marking was due to a mold change back in the 60's where the leading edge of the plate had a different chamfer than the original mold. Otherwise, the plates are the same.
