I've been intrigued by this same sound for a while now, even making a page for it a while back, dubbing it "Cartoon Metallic Impact" simply because I didn't know the exact origin.

Now that I think of it, I think this is more than likely a sound created by probably Phil Kaye for the TV Spots studio, as it also shows up quite a bit in "Roger Ramjet", for which Kaye also worked as sound editor. Unfortunately, I don't know how Art Clokey (or whatever editor he used) and Rich Harrison ended up obtaining this classic sound, but it would appear they used the same stock library. Not related, but the same library also had a number of Bob Clampett/Snowball Productions and at least one other TV Spots sound (an electric guitar boing used in "Freeze Frame" and "Portrait of the Artist as a Young Bunny.") Wish I knew more about this library, maybe I should make a blog post about it sometime.
