ABSTRACT:
A visor torque control comprises a spring steel body having a flange adapted to be mounted to the body of a visor and a semicylindrical collar for circumscribing at least a portion of a cylindrical visor rod. The end of the semicylindrical collar in one embodiment integrally includes an outwardly projecting tang which allows the torque control to be snap-fitted over the visor rod and further allows the diameter of the collar to be selectively adjusted. The interior of the spring steel member is integrally coated with a polymeric material to provide the desired frictional characteristics and operational feel of the rotation of the visor about the visor rod.
