This piece keeps popping up. I tried pliers to make it tighter to the overall clasp but same issue. Something is squeezing it higher so it pops up. Anyone dealt with this and have a fix? Thanks!

Looks like a later 93150 Fliplock mounted on your 9315 clasp.

Does the flip lock have grooves on top? If so, it's the wrong piece as noted above.

The dimple on the side "clicks" into the hole on the clasp. It appears as if the dimple and hole are aligned, so it isn't likely to suddenly decide to slide downward where there is no hole to click into.

The correct flip-lock part will have the dimple and hole aligned when the top is flush with the clasp. This appears to be a post-1990 93150 flip-lock.

I happen to be wearing a 9315 today with a correct no-groove flip-lock.

Dan's right.

The dimple is not aligned to the holes of the clasp so thats why its not "clicking" in.
