GaryNunn Report post Posted August 5, 2019 Is there an actual name for this type of clip and where can I find them? I see plenty of people offering products with them on Etsy, so I'm guessing they're available somewhere. Gary Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One would think these metal loops would be very available, but, surprisingly, they don't seem to be. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tugadude Report post Posted August 6, 2019 LatigoAmigo is correct, there was a previous thread and I don't recall any real success in sourcing the exact metal piece. Perhaps that is part of the patent? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keplerts Report post Posted August 6, 2019 A customer wanted me to make him a custom tool pouch with this tape clip on. I had to buy a cheap pouch with it on at lowes and tear it off to use on mine. Had to do the same thing for the hammer loop. I could not fine them available anywhere. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TonyRV2 Report post Posted August 6, 2019 This clip looks simple enough. Why not get yourself a piece of sheet metal and take a stab at making your own? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hildebrand Report post Posted August 7, 2019 The threads I have seen as well as my own searches all come up empty for a supplier of these clips. I resorted to buying a tape measure holder and cutting the clip off. Todd Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With such interest, you might think that some of the leather suppliers who advertise here would find a way to obtain and sell these... hint, hint.

joshhartung Report post Posted August 13, 2020 Hi @GaryNunn, I had the same question - lots of products with these but the part doesn't seem to be available. I ended up designing my own and having it made out of heavy stainless steel. Now I offer it on my website for DIY too. Just posted with volume discounts, but if you need larger quantities let me know at josh@holstery.com. https://holstery.com/products/tape-measure-holder-clip Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
