Snap Fitting Suppliers

04/24/2009 6:55 AM

Hello All,

I am looking for some particular Plastic Snap fittings.

Actually i obsered these type of fitting on some old fixture, but dont have any detail who made it.

If any body tells me such kind of suppliers who manufacture these kind of snap fittings, it will really help me.

Thanks in advance.

Are you sure those aren't hommeade? At this distance and before my morning coffee, it kinda looks like Delrin or HDPE. Is there no marking of any kind on them? Even underneath?

May be this is a Custom made part, but did there are any such type of Snap fitting suppliers in the market?

I am looking for such kind of standard component suppliers.

Thanks much friends.

What is it used for? Does the part with the angled surface pivot (it appears to have a pin)? Is it spring-loaded?

It appears also to have been made for a specific device, in which case you would only be able to get them from the original manufacturer or the original buyer (if they have surplus).

It has the look of a "bed of nails" tester for PC boards. Probably custom?

Hello Sachin Gore, Can you say what you want it to be used with? As someone said it is kinda small as you picture it. Any larger pic possible please? From what I can see it appears to be a generic semi-sprung fixing. And the crucial thing seems to be where it is placed and how much weight you need it to tack. The picture seems to show a pretty light construction. More info' please? Where did you get the picture? take care

I agree with earlier comments that it is probably custom/homemade from Delrin or HDPE, stuff that I used for a few custom projects myself. Depending on your location, you could probably get some samples and see if it feels familiar. It is fairly easy to machine, i.e. milling and turning. Good Luck.
