Customer Reviews

THESE PUSH PINS ARE GODSENDS IF YOU REALLY NEED THEM!
These are the right pins for tough jobs and they won't quit where standard 3/8" plastic topped pins won't do. Here's why and when I choose these:

1] Like the standard pins, you get 100 push pins!

2] OK, there are no pretty colors, but these aluminum tops won't crack if you have to push the pin into something harder than a bulletin board such as plywood or pegboard the way a plastic top may.

3] Just like there more civilized cousins, the little plastic colorful pins, these brutes come in a nice transparent case so they are contained and you won't end up sticking yourself in the finger when you are looking for pins in your desk drawer.

4] The points easily pierce almost anything except metal and the holes are small enough to be painted over later if you remove the pin.

5] They work easily and are easily removed and reused. Again, unlike their tame plastic little cousins they are almost indestructible -- A FOREVER PIN!

Getting 100 of these in a hard container for about 6 dollars costs about 6 times more than the cute, colorful, little 3/8" steel-tipped plastic topped pins. Having said that, when you need to hang a thick and/or heavy object and you need to insert push pins into a semi-hard surface these push pins are godsends.

Sturdy and stylish!
These push-pins are perfect for what I needed - they provide a classic look, and are easier to grip and don't break like the tiny colored plastic type. Have you ever had the head break off of one of those and have the sharp metal stick in your finger? Not pleasant.
They are worth the extra cost!

They're pushpins...
Okay, they work. Amazon's shipping was atrocious. Little tiny box of pushpins shipped inside an enormous box. The pushpins got loose inside - the box sounded like a half empty box of Fruit Loops when I shook it.
