Receptacle Clips
In each series a number of alternative receptacle clips
are offered.
The clips are manufactured from spring steel, heat
treated for maximum performance, and then protected
against corrosion by Xylan XL coating. Xylan
XL is a form of self lubrication plastic coating
giving excellent abrasion resistance and corrosion
protection of up to 250 hours neutral salt spray
resistance. Xylan XL has been specifically chosen
for coating Oddie clips, not only because of its
abrasion and corrosion resistance, but also as it is
applied by a non-electrolytic process, it eliminates any
possibility of hydrogen embrittlement and subsequent
failure of spring steel.

Spring Retainers
The usual method of retaining the stud in the removable
panel is by use of a neoprene washer. Not only does this
retain the stud, but it also compresses when the
fastener is locked giving the spring element of the
assembly. This prevents panel chatter, and provides
a means of taking up any end play in the assembly.
A variety of lengths of washer are offered in each
fastener series, The neoprene material is manufactured
to BS2752, and has a working temperature range of -20ºC
- +100ºC. Neoprene has excellent resistance to age
hardening, ultra violet light and most industrial
greases and oil.
The use of the neoprene washer
gives the further practical advantage of ensuring that
the stud is held out at 90º to the removable panel,
making stud engagement into the clip easier when the
panel is offered up to the framework. A particular
advantage when several studs are used on the same panel.
As an alternative to the neoprene
washer, the new Oddie range offers a stainless steel
bowed washer which is used under the head of the stud to
provide the spring element in the assembly. A DIN
standard circlip is used to retain the stud in the
removable panel. The use of this method of springing and
retention is ideal where the removable panel has to sit
flush with the framework, or where the environment
precludes the use of a neoprene washer.
The bowed washer forces the two
panels together, with the circlip sitting in the
clearance hole in the framework.
A moulded nylon cup washer is available for all three
series of slotted and socket recess head studs, to
protect paintwork, and is particularly suitable for
appearance purposes when the underhead bowed washer is
used, With wing head and low profile wing head studs,
the stud head diameter has been designed both larger
than the diameter of the bowed washer, and stepped, so
the cup washer is not required.
