Thanks everyone - I went to a local branch of Fastenal and got a 4 each of 6-10MM sizes. It's the 7MM ones that fit, btw.

The whole shebang cost me $1.76

Lucky you. The two times I went into a Fastenal looking for small quantities, I was SOL. Had to buy the whole package.

I think the guy at the counter messed up - They made the branch buy 1000 of them, but the branch let me buy individuals



So don't go to Fastenal expecting individual e-clips, I guess.

The carbon steel ones should be actually stronger than the stainless, just less resistant to rust.
