Question 27

A manufacturer is choosing between two reusable locking clips. During use, forces make the two sides of each clip move closer together.

A suitable clip must meet both of these requirements:

  • the sides must move at least 8.0 mm closer together while the forces act
  • the clip must be elastically deformed by the forces

Evaluate the results and recommend which clip should be used.
