What size e-clip

Recommended Posts

Are the retaining clips in the attach-a-matic assemblies? Like the one retaining the spring in pic?

 

I need a few and I have a box with standard sizes and none fit.

My experience is that they are standard sizes.  I needed a few in my C141 restoration.  Brought the old ones to the hardware store and matched them to the ones in the box.  As I recall, the clips are sized by the shaft, not the groove diameter.  If my memory is correct, you want one for a 1/2 inch shaft

I pickup clips at Lowes, on the shelf. Keep spares in my Kennedy tool boxes. :handgestures-thumbupright:
