Our 1/8" Aluminum Screw Posts are the smallest size made. They are designed for binding a very few sheets of paper together. Of course there are also many arts and crafts uses of these handy binding posts. You can use them to connect just about anything that you can punch or drill a hole through. Just push the post through the hole, thread the screw into the post and finger tighten. Your materials are now securely fastened! Aluminum Screw Posts can be easily removed to make changes or add more pages. Usually finger pressure is enough to unscrew them, but if the screw is extra tight a screwdriver or a small coin in the slot will nudge it loose. These short posts are threaded all the way through for extra strength. Screws and posts are sold together to assure that you have the proper length screws to fit your posts. Technical Specifications- The post length is 1/8" and the diameter is 3/16". The post length is the maximum binding thickness (inside length.) We recommend that you measure your document to obtain the best fit. We also recommend that you punch or drill a 1/4" hole in your documents to accept these posts.
