🔒 Hilitchi 380-Pcs [14 Different Sizes] E-Clip External Retaining Ring Set - 304 Stainless Steel Assortment Review

Well I knew the C-clip on the Stihl trimmer head would end up somewhere in my admittedly not very organized garage once it was removed. I never found it. This box saved my day. Just buy it.

I bought these to have spares when working on the upper hydraulic cylinders on my Mercedes SL500. They have 5mm electronic clips that fly. It worked for a couple that flew away and I couldn't find it.

What can I say about the eclipse. They appear to be of decent quality and with the quantity and sizes included in the box you just can't beat the price. Almost 400 pieces for the price of about 10 in the hardware store.

Replaces the tie rod I was using when I lost the original. I don't know when I'll be using the giant locking rings that come with it, but having others is a guarantee that you won't lose anymore in the mud, in the water, and in the shop.

Enough clips to last most men a lifetime, but the metal is too soft. They flex easily and are certainly not up to standard for use in a car or anything critical. But they will get the job done if you lose one of the original ductile steel brackets.

This range is very convenient to have in store. If you lose an e-clip, you don't have to stop and run to the supplier to try and get a new one. You simply go to the clip assortment, select the one you want and finish your project. I wouldn't want to be without one of these ranges in my shop.

The range is as expected and the quality is good. I wanted the smallest size in the set and it fits perfectly. The only issue I have is that it is not 304 stainless steel. I have worked with high quality stainless steel and exotic metals for decades and the magnetic properties of these materials are very low. This was not the case with these components.
