they are limited in application (0.047&#8243; wire) and &#8230; they are no longer made.<\/p>\n<p>Our good modeling friend, Chris Boehm called me last week as he had discovered a solution.\u00a0 Chris tried these silicone items on 0.025&#8243; wire and 0.047&#8243; wire and they might work on larger or smaller wire.\u00a0 Of course, you can also use them as wheel retainers.<\/p>\n<p>I bought a bunch and now will be offering these separately as well as including them with my VPS Clutches and Boehm Clutches.\u00a0 There will be 4 included with clutches (with no price increase) and you can get a pack of 10 separately for $1.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/volareproducts.com\/new2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Retainer03.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-3854\" src=\"https:\/\/volareproducts.com\/new2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Retainer03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"710\" srcset=\"https:\/\/volareproducts.com\/new2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Retainer03.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/volareproducts.com\/new2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Retainer03-300x213.jpg 300w, https:\/\/volareproducts.com\/new2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Retainer03-768x545.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/volareproducts.com\/new2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Retainer.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-large wp-image-3855\" src=\"https:\/\/volareproducts.com\/new2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Retainer.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"425\" srcset=\"https:\/\/volareproducts.com\/new2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Retainer.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/volareproducts.com\/new2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Retainer-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/volareproducts.com\/new2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Retainer-768x510.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/volareproducts.com\/new2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Retainer02.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-large wp-image-3856\" src=\"https:\/\/volareproducts.com\/new2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Retainer02.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"513\" srcset=\"https:\/\/volareproducts.com\/new2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Retainer02.jpg 988w, https:\/\/volareproducts.com\/new2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Retainer02-300x240.jpg 300w, https:\/\/volareproducts.com\/new2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Retainer02-768x616.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For clutches that sit behind the prop, you need some sort of retainer on the very tip of the prop shaft to keep the prop from falling off.\u00a0 Some people use wire insulation, heat shrink tubing, a crimped metal tube, &hellip;
