What Are Binder Clips?
Plastic binder clips are part of a large family of office basics that are tools to help you prepare, organize, and display material for an array of workplace tasks. The versatile clips have a unique shape with powerful clasping strength and durable construction. Paper binder clips organize documents easily.
Unlike butterfly clips, which are one piece of metal wire, binder clips have a three-piece composition. The jaws clip onto material ranging from paper to tablecloths, and they’re made from annealed spring steel. The steel is resilient and has a high yield strength, so it’s flexible enough to open yet provides the tension necessary to provide an ultra-secure fastener. They are made from sturdy metal and plastic and are designed to be long-lasting.
What Are the Features of Paper Binder Clips?
Like staples, paper binder clips are also available in distinct sizes, with different jaw capacities for holding material together. The three basic clip sizes are small, medium, and large. Small binder clips have a 0.375 in. capacity, medium clips have a 0.645 in. capacity, and large binder clips have up to a 1.25 in. capacity. Mini clips hold about 0.25 in. of material securely and comfortably without cramming.
What Types of Metal Binder Clips Are Available?
Like office staplers that are available in a mix of standard and stylish models, binder clips come in standard colors,designer colors and specialty designs. One benefit of annealed spring steel is that manufacturers can heat-coat it with a variety of pigmented oxides after the annealing process. The most common paper binder clip shade is black but white, yellow, blue, red, orange, green, purple and pink are also available. You can choose faux gold and silver plated clips for high-end presentation-style fasteners, as well as rosette-pattern, multi-color clips.
How Can Document Clips Be Used?
Plastic binder clips can be used to sort out documents for teachers into piles that are already graded, and ones that need to be reviewed. Metal binder clips are perfect for bundling paperwork together inside envelopes in the mail. Utilize paper binder clips to create sections within binders. You can use the clips to bind similar subject matter together and then categorize the contents of the bundle by writing a description on the paper tab.
