Can anyone tell me what size hairpin clips I need for the rods on a Zumsteel. I had a couple to break. I put the smallest e-clip I could find and squeezed it so it would be fairly snug. I think a 1/16 pin is what I need but not for sure.
Freddy in VA.

I looked at our local Lowes here in Va but they didn't have them that small. I ordered a package of the smallest pins McMaster Car had. Thx to all who responded.

Another vote for ACE. I've seen some pretty small ones there. I find ACE far better than Home Depot or Lowes, neither if which our town has.

Thx for all the suggestions. I picked up some at Advance Auto and put them on they worked great.
