Title: Tool Box clips?


cagedruss - December 9, 2007 12:07 AM (GMT)
I am looking for something specific and I can't find them. It is a clip that is riveted to a tool box or wall. Springy in nature and is used for holding tools. I have found similar (see pic) and have bought them. Problem is they are to big. Good for ratchets and 1/2" drive extensions. It can look different as long as it does what I need.

I have tried local tool suppliers, stores, and the internet. I only find the same as I have or they are magnetic (not good for a metal fab shop). Does any body have and idea where to go or look to get some. Looking for about 50 pieces.

I am putting together a pit box and need them. Thanks, Russ

That picture looks like a broomhandle clip made by Hindley Manufacturing in Connecticut. If you can wade thru their website you're better than I am.

It should be available from this site

They used to be avaialble as a Stanley Hardware item from Hardware wholesalers in lots of 25 to a box before the world went blister pack nuts.

There are several sizes for different diameters of handles.

You can probably locate them at Cook Iron Store, a wholesale hardware in business since 1907 at the same spot, where the salesmen actually know what they have and how to use it http://www.heavydutystore.com/

If it doesn't show in the online catalogue just call.
