Product Description

Holster Retention Hardware

Commonly called, “Black Chicago Screw Assemblies”, these are black oxide coated slotted post truss head holster retention assemblies. These create adjustable retention in KYDEX holster, flashlight and magazine carriers. They help to close the gap between the opposing material layers in common thermoform holster designs.

The black oxide coated 8-32 truss head screws are another Holstex brand exclusive and features the thinnest edge available on this type of design. This is vitally important when used for holster retention, or even in clothing or upholstery use, as the leading edge of the truss head screw is the surface most likely to cause irritation when rubbed against. In the kydex and leather holster making business, it is a standard rule of professionals who understand, “Any holster can look good, but only those that wear good will stand the test of time.” Eliminating surface irritation drives all of our binding screw and slotted post assembly designs.

Our black slotted post truss head retention assemblies are used by professional Kydex and leather holster makers and government holster contractors all over the world.

Works with Holster Concealment Claws

Our Holster Retention Hardware also works great with holster claws and/or other concealment attachments. We recommend measuring your holster claw and holster material to ensure the right size that you need for your holster. We have up to four different sizes available.

(1) QTY = (12) SPTHRA Assemblies | Commonly called, “Black Chicago Screw Assemblies”, these are black oxide coated slotted post truss head holster retention assemblies used to create the retention on a fold-over or taco-style holster. The assembly is used to add a controlled “pinch point” to the gun by the holster to hold it in place.
Smooth Assembly Surfaces For Wear Comfort: Each SPTHA assembly has been deburred and edge finished to ensure the maximum wear comfort. Just because you sell a screw and a post doesn’t make it “wear” well. Care must be taken to smooth the surfaces and edges of each part within the assembly to ensure that the wearer experiences maximum comfort without irritation. Our assembly parts are second to none in holster making.
EPDM Rubber Retention Washer (Included) works by adding a rubber standoff washer between the material layers of the holster. This can then be tightened (or loosened) with the included phillips truss head screw to adjust the grip of the thermoform material of the holster against the holstered item. This creates the adjustable retention.
