Some helpful tips when using our findings!

1000 and 1200 Series Ear Clips

These clips come with a removable spring. The clip assembly should be disassembled to attach the stem to your jewelry and then reassembled after it is attached. Place a small drop of oil (we use the point of a needle) on the spring where it meets the stem after your are finished with polishing and cleaning. Heat on the springs  may affect the effectiveness of the clip.

The clips have a small dimple in the spring to interlock with a small bump on the frame to retain the spring and prevent slipping during operation. Do not file off.

At our shop, the pins are finished with a laser, welding them to the tubing. If you don’t have a laser, the pins may be balled with a torch. We do not recommend riveting as this often results in pinching of the joint and creating excessive friction, diminishing the effectiveness of the clip.
