Quick connect/disconnect keychain 1

[rd400guy]

I need help finding out who manufactures the quick connect assembly used on keychains like this one:

I don't want to make keychains, I don't need the connection to have the holes drilled for keyrings. I am looking for this type of quick disconnect mechanical coupling device for use on a product I'm designing.

Thomasnet and GlobalSpec are taking more time than they're worth.

If you want to buy them in quantity (84 cents each) see

Maybe cut off the portion you don't want ?

Parker hydraulics makes some quick couplers that are tiny, and, in fact, sell keychains made out of them.

I'm looking at my trusty paper catalog, but it references

http://www.parker.com/quickcouplings

A couple of part numbers are KEY-BK and KEY-NI.

Probably cost more than amorrison4's suggestion, though.
