Clear Plastic Bobbin for RV Shade String - Replacement Parts

The clear plastic part cannot be matched from the word “bobbin” alone, and a suitable item or current stock has not been verified for this shade. Record the shade manufacturer, model/label and whether the part anchors a pleated shade's cord, guides a cord through a rail, or performs another function. Include a photograph of the part in place and the complete shade so its role is clear.

For an identified Irvine E-Z Lift pleated shade, the manufacturer's installation sheet labels the lower cord attachments as hold-down brackets (D). Its separate two-string pleated-shade diagram shows cord routing through that type of assembly. Neither document supplies a replacement bobbin part number or dimensions for the unknown shade in this question, and neither establishes that the pictured item is the customer's part.

To compare a candidate, use the manufacturer's part number plus the original mounting method, overall diameter and depth, center hole/screw size, cord groove or passage and cord arrangement. Clear plastic and a similar silhouette are insufficient to establish compatibility. Those measurements are identification evidence, not approval to restring, substitute a fastener or install an unmatched part.

United Shade also catalogs clear cord-retainer components that are relevant candidates once the original shade is identified. The manufacturer's Cord Retainers page selects part 908450 as Flat and 908451 as Long, and identifies 908452 as the separately sold cover used with either retainer. ERVP lists 908450 under Clear Domestic Short, 908451 under Clear Domestic Long and 908452 as Clear Covers. A cover alone is not a complete cord retainer, and Flat/Short and Long should not be treated as interchangeable merely because they use the same cover.

United Shade's restringing guide distinguishes cord retainers below the bottom rail from rail end caps and bushings. That diagram applies to the identified shade type and cord arrangement; it does not approve any of these parts for the unidentified shade in this question. Compare the exact manufacturer/part, base profile, mounting screw, projection and cord path before selecting. The manufacturer page's general dimensions do not establish a model-specific clearance or screw specification. These links identify parts, without confirming stock, pack quantity, included screws or a repair outcome.

The four existing product references below are catalogued roller-shade bottom-bar end caps in different finishes. They have not been verified as clear cord bobbins or pleated-shade hold-down brackets, and are retained only to distinguish those components. The Irvine support documents apply only after the system is identified. An exact replacement, inclusion, availability or successful repair remains unconfirmed.
