What are these clips made of?

They are typically made from durable plastic, metal, or a combination of both materials.

Can these clips be used in strong winds?

Yes, they provide a strong grip. For very strong winds, it is recommended to use them with elasticated rope or bungee cords for added security.

Will these clips damage my tarp?

The clips are designed with teeth that grip the material firmly without intentionally damaging it. However, use caution with extremely delicate materials.

What are the best applications for these clips?

They are ideal for securing tarps, covers, screens, and nets for camping, construction, farming, landscaping, and general garden use.

How do I attach the clips?

Simply slide the edge of the material into the clip and squeeze the handles together. The internal teeth will grip the material.

What is the color of the clips?

These clips are black.

Troubleshooting

Clip not holding material securely

Ensure the material is fully inserted into the clip and that the clip is properly squeezed to engage the locking teeth. Check if the material is too thick or too thin for the clip. Try using multiple clips or adding elasticated rope for extra tension.

Clip feels difficult to open or close

Check for any debris lodged in the hinge or locking mechanism. Gently work the clip open and closed to dislodge any obstruction. If the issue persists, the clip may be damaged.

Clip appears to be damaging the material

While designed to minimize damage, very delicate materials might be susceptible. Ensure the material is positioned correctly within the clip, avoiding excessive tension directly on the teeth. Consider using a small piece of cloth as a buffer between the clip and the material if damage is a concern.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To use, simply slide the edge of the tarpaulin or material into the clip and squeeze the handles together to engage the locking mechanism. The teeth inside the clip will bite into the material, providing a secure hold. For added security, especially in windy environments, it is recommended to use these clips in conjunction with elasticated rope or bungee cords passed through grommets or attached to the material near the clip.

Compatibility: These clips are designed to work with a wide range of tarpaulins, covers, screens, and nets. They accommodate various material thicknesses and are best used with materials that have reinforced edges or grommets for optimal anchoring points. They can attach to poles, frames, ropes, or other anchor points.

Care: To maintain the clips, regularly clean them with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals. Store them in a dry place when not in use to prevent corrosion or material degradation. Inspect clips periodically for any signs of damage or wear.
