Liftmaster K99-COB-38TPT, 3/8" TOP PLATE, 36" TEETH
The LiftMaster K99-COB-38TPT is a heavy 3/8 inch Cobra top plate with 36 teeth for LiftMaster traffic spike applications. It is used in directional vehicle-control lanes where the top plate and tooth profile must stay straight, secure, and properly positioned for the spike system to work as intended. This part is different from the 1/4 inch top plate and from CR-labeled versions. Match the plate thickness, tooth count, and Cobra system style before ordering, especially when repairing an older surface-mount or in-ground lane assembly.

Technician Note
For K99-COB-38TPT, the safest match is the original part number and the specific LiftMaster traffic-control parts diagram. Do not rely on appearance alone, especially with Cobra, King Cobra, Stingray, Viper, and CR plate variations.
Before Ordering
- Match the original part number on the removed part or parts list
- Confirm the traffic spike family: Cobra, King Cobra, Stingray, Viper, Enforcer, or other LiftMaster system
- Check plate thickness, tooth count, CR designation, shaft length, bearing size, or sign type when applicable
- Inspect surrounding hardware for wear so the new part is not installed against damaged components
- Do not substitute a similar-looking part unless the manufacturer parts diagram supports it
Important Ordering Warnings
- Similar LiftMaster traffic spike parts may not be interchangeable
- CR, surface-mount, concealed, in-ground, and standard versions may use different hardware
- Traffic lanes should be blocked and secured before service
- Warning signs and safety instructions should remain visible and intact
Professional Advisory
Traffic spike systems can create severe tire damage and should be serviced only with the lane secured, the system locked out where applicable, and all warning signs and traffic-control procedures in place. Do not modify the system or remove required warning devices.
