Expensive P-clips!!
« on: March 31, 2012, 07:42:24 am »
I found this interesting product on Element 14.

http://au.element14.com/hellermann-tyton/alu11-alu-na-c1/p-clip-alu-17-5mm-pk100/dp/1827064

I don't see any reason why these should be so expensive so I think its just an error in the system.
ooooohh... what does this button do???

If it was an Aerospace rated and certified unit I would say the price can be in ballpark for certain applications. RS has screws that are $100 plus each, in a M4 size, and do sell them. Of course that will be a Titanium alloy screw, rated to work when white hot. For these clips they would have to be the matching fasteners.

Change country and they are US$ 1 each.
