Workshop trailer clips
« on: January 26, 2015, 09:22:32 PM »
After half a dozen (6) overhead clips for my 1966 workshop trailer. Does anybody have any for sale please.
Here's a picture of what I'm after.

Those clips are known as Terry Clips. They are still available new, but the modern type are narrower: http://www.norma.net.au/products/fixing-retaining/terry-tool-clips

You could try asking around for old stock with broader widths, at least you know what to ask for.

Terry's is an old British springmaker, and originally patented these type of springs back in the 1800's. Terry's is no longer around, but their products are still being made by Central Springs. An email with a photo and measurements might get you results?
