Abstract: The anodizing clip includes an elongate body having inner and outer surfaces. The inner surface has teeth at either end. A flexible, strong elastic band has first and second ends removably secured to the body and sized to pass around a rack member of an anodizing rack. A workpiece is placed between the teeth of the body and the rack member and is held in place by the force of the elastic band. Insertion and removal of workpieces between the rack member and the teeth on the body of the anodizing clip is preferably accomplished using a release tool to gain a mechanical advantage.
