Hello,

Help please, I have recently acquired a Sunncamp 350 Trailer Tent.

On putting it up today I noticed that a clip is missing which holds the folding part of the frame in place, it looks like a silver dome about the size of a 5p piece (or maybe slightly bigger) makes it look like a rivet when it's in place.

Without it the rear section will not stay in place, I have temporarily held it with a cable tie but this isn't ideal.

Any idea what this part is called, and where I might get spares.

Thanks

Rob

It sounds like a starlock washer with dome cap, if you tell me the size of pin it goes on,I might have a couple lying about.An ordinary star washer works,but may leave a sharp edge. Motorbike spares shop is where I got some many years ago.

Thats the blighter, Starlock washer with dome.

I tried everything I could think of when I was googling it before posting on here.

I'm not sure of the pin size, but I found a site that sells these in different sizes so I've ordered a few of each, at 13p each it's not to bad and at least I'll have some spares.

Interestingly according to another site these shouldn't come off, so god knows how it did.

Thanks again

Rob

Glad you found some.They can work loose in time,and once they are off,cant be reused. I think they are probably french
