Secure Two-Piece Fastening

The ACCO 70012 fasteners provide a reliable method for binding punched documents inside folders or binders. Each box contains 50 complete sets designed for frequent office use. The two-piece construction allows sheets to be added or removed without stripping the entire file.

Upgrade from Single-Prong Clips

These fasteners replace loose leaf rings or single-prong clips that tear paper under heavy loads. The jump is worth it when documents exceed the holding power of simpler clips or when pages must turn freely without binding. The coined edges prevent the snagging common with rough-cut metal alternatives.

Limits of Prong Binding

The prong-to-prong spacing fixes the hole pattern required, so the system only works with pre-punched sheets matching that distance. Capacity is constrained by the length of the prongs, limiting the maximum stack height per fastener. Tin-coated steel resists corrosion but adds no locking mechanism beyond friction.

Questions about this item

What is the prong-to-prong spacing on the ACCO 70012 fasteners?

The fasteners have a 2 3/4 inch prong-to-prong spacing, matching standard punched paper holes for secure binding.

How do you assemble the two-piece fastener correctly?

Insert the pronged base through the punched holes, then press the compressor bar down over the prongs until it clicks flat to lock the papers.

Will the silver finish on these fasteners rust over time?

The tin-coated matte finish resists corrosion, so the silver colour stays intact through normal office use without rust forming.
