Evening all.
Does anyone know what the proper name is for the little round springy push on clips that retain the handle pins on the R2000/300/500 ) in fact most Roberts radios from the early 60s)? I've searched for spire clips but these tend to be rectangular and accept a self tapper. Any help as to what they're called and/or a source would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Rob |

I've looked at starlock washers, they are similar but have too many fingers. They may be my only option though. Time to get the digital callipers out !
