Panel retaining clips glass and panel 3/16 inset from Hughes Supply are plastic panel assembly fittings designed to hold solid panels in place with a soft, consistent pressure. These panel retaining clips are made to work with glass or other solid panels set on a 3/16 inch inset, so the panel stays seated in its groove during normal cabinet or fixture use. The clip applies a gentle bearing force against the panel or glass, which reduces rattling in doors, frames, and similar assemblies. Each plastic retainer button fits into a fastening point where a #5 flat head or oval head screw can be used, giving installers a familiar screw interface when building or repairing panel assemblies. The walnut color supports projects where a darker clip tone is preferred around the panel edge, which can help the hardware visually blend with darker materials in the assembly.
These Hughes Supply panel retaining clips are designed around a 3/16 inch inset, so they are suited for panel or glass layouts where the panel sits back this distance from the front reference edge. The retainer accepts a #5 flat head or oval head screw, giving the installer a choice of screw head style while keeping the same clip geometry. Using a flat head or oval head profile allows the screw to seat within the clip the way the part is designed, so the bearing surface of the plastic button can press smoothly against the panel or glass. The plastic material provides a cushioned contact at the panel edge, which supports snug installation without direct metal contact on the panel surface.
These plastic panel assembly fittings are identified as panel retaining clips for glass and solid panels, so they fit into projects where a panel must stay fixed while still resting in a groove or rabbet. The 3/16 inch inset specification ties the clip to door frames, cabinet ends, display frames, or similar assemblies cut for that set-back, helping the panel sit correctly while the clip supplies the retaining force. Because the retainer works with both panel and glass, a shop can apply the same part number H-0262-8280/M in wood, composite, or glass panel openings that share the same inset requirement. The walnut color lets these clips sit visually near darker framing members without standing out strongly around the back side of the panel opening.
The clip is described as holding solid panels in place and preventing rattling by maintaining a soft pressure, which means the part is intended to take up the small clearance that normally causes panel chatter. That soft, plastic contact against the panel or glass helps absorb minor movement while keeping the panel seated, so finished doors and frames feel tighter in use. The specified use of a #5 flat head or oval head screw connects the retainer to a defined screw size, which helps keep the clip centered and properly loaded when driven into the frame. As a result, installers working in runs of cabinet doors or display frames can repeat the same drill, screw, and clip approach around each opening, keeping panel retention consistent from piece to piece. Sold in full box quantities only, this configuration aligns with shop or installer environments where many panel retainers are used across multiple cabinets or fixtures in a single project.
These panel retaining clips are designed to hold solid panels or glass panels by applying a soft pressure against the material so the panel stays seated and does not rattle in its opening.
The 3/16 inch inset indicates these clips are suited to panel or glass layouts where the panel sits 3/16 inch back from the reference edge, so the clip can bear correctly against the panel edge.
These panel retaining clips use a #5 flat head or oval head screw, giving installers a defined screw size that matches the clip geometry for a stable, centered attachment point.
The clip is made of plastic, providing a soft contact surface that presses against glass or finished panels without metal-on-panel contact, which supports clean edges in cabinet or frame assemblies.
The retainer maintains a soft pressure against the panel or glass, taking up small clearances that typically cause noise, so doors and frames feel more solid during everyday operation.
The walnut color aligns with darker wood tones, so when the clip is positioned near the panel perimeter, it visually blends more easily with dark frames and surrounding materials.
These Hughes Supply plastic panel retaining clips are identified as panel assembly fittings for glass and solid panels on a 3/16 inch inset, so they fit well into cabinet and frame layouts built around that setback. The combination of soft pressure against the panel, plastic construction, and use of a #5 flat head or oval head screw supports a repeatable installation approach across multiple openings. For shops or installers working in full box quantities, this part number H-0262-8280/M provides a focused solution for holding panels in place and limiting rattling in finished work.
