nahoku Report post Posted January 6, 2014 Hi all, I need to rebuild my phone case as the Tandy nickel plated belt clip is turning nasty (rust, etc). I've been searching high and low for a stainless steel belt clip, but can't seem to find any that satisfies what I want to use. Most are either too thin (width), or the shape is wrong. I want it to be shaped like the Tandy clip. I tried emailing JRM Products a while back, but they never answered me. You can see my poor clip is rusting! Quite a bummers as I now have to rebuild the entire case! Anyone know a quick source for these types of clips in stainless? Or, perhaps another viable option I might consider? The clip I used on this is the Tandy Spring Belt/Holster clip 7/8" x 3". I greatly appreciate any help with this! Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nahoku Report post Posted January 7, 2014 I'd be tempted to clean that one up and cover it with paint,tape or thin leather. Thanks! I thought about that, but decided paint would probably rub off quite soon, plus I didn't want paint getting on my clothes. Maybe clean it up and clear coat it, but again it'll probably rub off. Try theclip.com they have some stainless, black oxide and nickle plated. http://www.theclip.c...ome.php?cat=301 Thanks! I looked at theclip.com several times in the past and not liked what I saw. Not sure why it's so tough to find a stainless clip in varying styles. You'd think it would be readily available given nickel coating doesn't last that long and there are a ton of uses for stainless clips... police, holsters, marine. Maybe I just gotta keep hunting! Why so tough?!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
