FAQs
What material are these paper clips made from?
These paper clips are made from metal.
How many paper clips are in a pack?
Each pack contains 100 paper clips.
What is the length of these paper clips?
The length of these paper clips is 33mm.
What does 'Lipped End' mean?
The lipped end refers to a design feature that provides a more secure and stable grip on the papers, helping to prevent them from slipping out.
Are these paper clips suitable for archival purposes?
While durable, metal clips can potentially cause marks on paper over very long periods. For strict archival needs, consider specialized archival fasteners.
How should I store the paper clips?
It is best to store them in their original box in a dry location to prevent rust or damage.
Can these clips be reused?
Yes, they can be reused. If a clip becomes bent, you can often straighten it for continued use.
Troubleshooting
Paper clips are not holding papers securely.
Ensure you are not overloading the clips beyond their capacity. If clips appear stretched or bent, try using a new one. The lipped end should face outwards to maximize grip.
Clips are leaving marks on the paper.
This can happen with prolonged contact, especially in humid conditions. Consider using archival-safe fasteners or removing clips from documents shortly after use if marking is a concern.
Clips are difficult to slide onto papers.
Ensure the papers are stacked neatly and not too thick for the 33mm size. Try opening the clip slightly wider before attaching it.

Compatibility: Compatible with all standard paper types and thicknesses that can accommodate a 33mm clip. They are suitable for use with documents in offices, schools, and homes.
