I have been searching for clips just like the one on the end of the belt below
I contacted the manufacturer and they do not sell them separately nor did they point me in the right direction. 
Does anyone know what they are called? I searched McMaster and had no luck. Thank you. |

I would say if they didnt point you in a direction, theyre probably
made by them and have rights to them??? Try strapworks |

Try making your own? Music wire and a K&S or dubro wire bender. Maybe need to anneal the wire at the bends to keep it from breaking. This would be a last resort. K&S has two sizes for different ranges of wire diameter

I was thinking the same as the post above. Can you make your own?? |

How wide is the webbing?
What does the other end hook onto? My idea is to take a stamped steel tri-bar slide. Cut one side in the center to put over the webbing end, then cut a spot on the bottom outside to fit over what ever you need it to hook onto. Basically get a steel tr-bar that fits, and cut the blue areas I indicated.

While I have drill rod in any m=number of sizes around, welding rod is another good source of raw material.
A $15 bender and you should be able to make them with little problem. Music wire is often to hard (and brittle) to be useful. You can anneal it with a propane torch but drill rod is often a far more reliable material. |

HOW much weight does it have to hold and how many do you need? Quote HistoryQuoted:
