Product Information
Full details
The Q-Connect Map Pins are essential organizational tools designed for students, teachers, office professionals, and home organizers who need a reliable way to mark locations, highlight important dates, or secure documents to soft surfaces. These pins offer the key benefit of high visibility thanks to their vibrant, spherical heads, which help keep your planning visuals clear and intuitive. A notable caveat to consider is that due to their 20mm length, they are best suited for soft boards and may not penetrate harder surfaces like dense wood or drywall without significant effort.

FAQs
What is the total length of the pins?
Each pin is 20mm in length.
Can I use these on drywall?
No, these are map pins designed for soft surfaces like cork or notice boards and will not effectively penetrate solid walls.
Are these safe for children?
Due to the sharp tips and small size, they should be kept out of reach of small children.
How many pins are included in the pack?
Each pack contains 60 pins.
What surfaces are compatible with these pins?
They are best suited for cork boards, notice boards, and foam-based map materials.
Troubleshooting
Pin is difficult to insert into board
Ensure the board surface is soft enough to receive the pin; try repositioning to a fresh area of the cork or fabric.
Pin head feels loose or wobbly
This is likely a manufacturing defect; if the head detaches, discard the pin immediately to avoid swallowing hazards.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These pins are designed for use with soft, penetrable surfaces including cork boards, notice boards, foam-backed maps, and fabric partitions. They are not intended for use on drywall, metal, or wood surfaces.
To ensure the longevity of your pins:
- Push the pin in straight to avoid bending the shaft.
- When removing, pull directly outward rather than wiggling, which can widen the hole in your cork board.
- Store them back in the provided hanging pack when not in use to prevent them from falling onto the floor, where they could cause injury or become lost.
