NameStar MC9 Mighty Clip

I really like this bag clip set. As a replacement for the variety of disappointing plastic clips that we had, I decided to get metal ones. My usual shopping habit is to research Amazon purchases over and over, but these clips instantly stood out to me. Our phones have been with us for almost 4 months and so far, we are very happy with them. The small set is a little over 1 inch in diameter based on my measurement. Each of the small sets is 5 inches wide, the medium set is 3 inches wide, and the large set is just over 4 inches wide. Normally, plastic clips come in 75-inch widths.

I think that these two features solve the problems that most plastic clips have 1) Plastic clips frequently break or come apart. These metal clips are built against breakages. Stainless steel has no flexing on its sides, and is thus very sturdy. Additionally, the assembly is elegantly simple and appears to stay put once it is assembled. 2) Plastic clips frequently don't apply enough force to hold some bags closed or to hold them A strong clamping force is provided by these metal clips. One of these clips was attached to the handle tab of a cloth reusable grocery bag. I added weights to the bag, folded the top over, and lifted it with one of the handle tabs on In this experiment, the large clip could lift a weight of 5lb and the medium clip could lift a weight of 4lb. I do not suggest you lift your bag of flour or sugar by the clip, but it illustrates how secure the hold is. Earlier today, someone asked about how hard it would be for someone with arthritis to open the clips. They shouldn't be a problem for anyone with normal strength hands, but for someone with really weak hands, they may prove difficult. A pseudo-thesis was done by me A scientific test was performed, in which I set weights on the clip handles and estimated the small clip would require an additional 5+ pounds of pinching force to open half, the medium 4+ pounds and the large 6+ pounds. There is a good amount of handle space on the medium and large clips. It has also been shaped so that the handle surface is rounded so that it is comfortable to hold. Most people should be able to use these without any problems. There may be a problem for a limited number of users with the clip, since there is neither a magnet nor a hole, so they would be difficult to stick or hang As long as they are kept in a drawer, I'm fine with that. These are the type of sturdy metal products that I prefer to purchase, because they will last a very long time. These look good—both the brushed stainless steel and the brushed aluminum. For the price, I think they're a great buy.

Since Mighty Clips are all stainless steel, I could get them wet, wash them in the dishwasher, and clean them without fear of rust. There is NO weak link in this spring mechanism A huge, heavy bag of animal feed can be held closed by the device. Chip and bag clips can be made in the smaller sizes. Clips powered by springs tend to break after a few years due to the spring breaking or popping. My Mighty Clips have been with me for years, almost half a decade, and they are nearly as good as the day I bought I have never had a broken one, even when they are very heavily used. This is not the cheapest kitchen clip you'll ever find, but it's absolutely worth it. Not to mention, you won't have to buy another one for a long time.

It is definitely one of the best and strongest clips I've ever used so far. I have had mine only for a few months so can't speak to durability but they've been dropped several times, and I've used them on chips, cereal, and even In fact, I even used them to hang a blanket from a clothes pin. This is a very strong message. I tried to open the packaging, and even though it looked nice, it was a real struggle to get the clips out. I finally had to use a screwdriver and a fair amount of curse words to get them out. I also wish I had a magnet on the back, since I often stick the plastic clips to the side of the fridge both so I can find them and so I can store various things. Imagine how a tiny little helper could hold all sorts of things with a magnetic back as strong as the grip, then just think of all the other things it could accomplish. Until my own magnet arrives, I may have to attach it to the device.

As you can see, they do not have magnets, which I personally do not need and find annoying as a result. Stainless steel is used throughout and it appears to be a very sturdy material My experience with plastic clips is that they generally break after a few years. There's a nice range of sizes here, but be aware that the small clips are very small, so you should use them with small, light bags only. If you only use bags, you may prefer an all-size clip. I use so many clips that I can use any size, but if you use one, an all-size clip may be better There are a lot of them. As far as clips go, these are the best that I could find, in the absence of other options. I wish they weren't made in China, but it seems that all clips are made in China currently. Despite the fact that these clips are not the most reliable of all, they do the job and feel like they will last. I plan to buy another set, I use clips a lot, and these are the best. *BUT UPDATED It's been over 5 years since these are still going strong, and not one has broken from the Having broken all my other plastic ones since then, I have only just now decided to buy a second set of these, not to replace these but all the other plastic ones I had In our house, we use a lot of clips. They are great as long as you don't need a magnet, so you won't regret buying them.

"Chip clips" are really necessary in humid climates because they assist in keeping the crisp air inside and the damp air outside. I have to replace the plastic clips every few months due to them not lasting as long as we would like. It's great to have steel clips like these! They are not only more durable than the plastic one (we do not know how long the plastic is going to last since none have broken so far,) but they also have stronger springs to make bag sealing more effective. In the event that they break, there will be no plastic waste to add to the dump, the steel clips will go into a Due to the huge amount of thick plastic packaging this product comes in, the fifth star is missing. The clips are perfect, but the packaging needs to be redesigned.

The package contained a variety of sizes to meet the needs of various ensure that the bag does not fall open when they are on, unlike some wimpy chip clips I've used in the past. These are stainless steel, great quality clips that are sturdy and can be used for a variety of purposes. In addition to using them for bags of frozen vegetables, I also use them in the freezer. The second package that I purchased for my RV was just delivered.
