HTP Retainer Clip

Horse Trailer Wall Pad Retainer Clips

(choose from two lengths)

(The 1 1/2" length is also commonly used to hold 1/4" rubber wall mat to a hollow trailer wall.)

These are also known as "push pins" in the horse trailer world. They work with 1" double-wall aluminum trailers & dividers, although they are designed for just a one-time use. The nylon threads are flexible, and they catch the trailer surface & hold the pad tight. You must compare your drill bit to the pin stem, and use a slightly smaller drill bit. 1/4" or 17/64" for the 1" clip/ the 1 1/2" clip is smaller diameter, takes a 1/4".  Drill a hole through the flat pad border area & trailer wall. Push the pin in with a rubber mallet You can use less clips than with a screw application, drill less holes, and it looks neater. Choose the 1" black retainer clips for the pads we sell, if you intend to mount them into the flat border area.

*These are also the common applicator for homemade or commercial "upgrade" trailer pads that have no border, and in this case they are applied directly through the foam area. For the commercial trailer pads made with no border, choose the 1 1/2" length black retainer clip.

HOW MANY DO YOU NEED? We suggest:

 4 clips for each 12" pad

6 clips for each 24" pad
