Looking for a tiny hairpin clip..

[basenjib123]

I have searched high and low for this tiny hairpin clip approx. 1/4" L and a wire diameter which that of a guitar string. Does anyone know a source for these things? .. I cannot find anything near this small size...Clip is in the pink circle.. Thanks, Joe.

Did you try Ebay? You can find almost anything there.

They use them a lot in automotive applications for throttle rod linkages, etc. Many auto parts stores have a section with bubble pack of hard to find small hardware. Worth a try. An alternative would be a c-clip if originality is not critical.

"e" clip would be easier to find locally. HF usually has assortments in a kit.

Yeah, I tried eclips but it leaves too much slop. I found those from granger but the wire is just too thick. Thanks for the replies. Keep 'em coming

Try an auto parts store; carburators use small clips like that, maybe a auto repair shop.
