Scroll down to this link and you will find tent pole clips. This has been a hard to find item in the past.
Thanks to Ivo k on the buckle thread for giving a link to Quest’s site so I could stumble upon these.

Thank you Daryl. This is the first I've seen of these available separately. Alas, if the photo is accurate, not sure they would hold on the lower dia. carbon poles. The ones I've cannibalized from old cheap tents have a little larger hook that holds the carbon poles securely.
Sam,
Good point.
Says it would fit down to a .340" od pole. That would make it pretty loose on, say, a .292" od Fibraplex carbon fiber pole.
Might still be useful when a "snap" fit isn't required.
Daryl, Noticed that extreme textil carries a tent pole clip that has the lip on it that allows it to snap and hold onto the pole. It is sized just over a centimeter and appears to be the same size and construction as the US ones that clip tightly to Easton .340 OD poles, but will also securely hold a carbon pole, such as Victory 300, albeit a little more loosely. Extrem Textil has become much easier to order from for delivery in the USA with a credit card. The bad news is that ET charges .6 Euros apiece for them, but that includes the Value Added Tax that is not charged to customers outside the EU. http://www.extremtextil.de/catalog/Tent-hook-medium-for-11mm-diameter::1963.html Happy Trails, Sam
Sam, Those look good. Thanks for the post. Daryl
