Heat Tape clip questions?

coolluigi007 Feb 20, 2009 12:00 PM

Hey everybody. What's a good place to get the metal clips that clip the wires on the heat tape? I think I've seen some online but I was hoping to find them locally. It just seems like a small thing to have to order online. Any ideas?

I would solder the wires directly to the flexwatt if I were you. Then use an insulating epoxy to cover the wires up, followed with some electric tape on top. You can get the wireless Cold Heat soldering iron for $20, or get one from Radio Shucks....

Good luck.

As far as I have seen if you want clips I would recommend getting them where ever you got your heat tape, there are not local fixes that I have found for clips that work.
