What it is and who uses it

Business Source 3160 prong fasteners come in a box of 50 and are built for offices that bind papers inside file folders. The steel construction resists bending during daily filing and retrieval.

Capacity and headroom

Each fastener holds up to a 1-inch stack of pages, which covers typical reports, invoices and project files. Thicker bundles exceed the prong length and will not close securely.

What it replaces and when to upgrade

These fasteners replace worn or missing prongs in existing folders and eliminate the need for hole-punching when pages must stay removable. Buyers who need to bind stacks thicker than one inch will need a different binding method.

Questions about this item

Will the 1" capacity prong fastener hold a thick project binder alongside standard file folders?

The 1" capacity secures up to one inch of stacked paper, so it fits thick project binders and standard folders together in the same drawer.

How can I confirm the smooth prong edges are preventing page tears after installation?

Flip through the fastened stack; pages should slide freely without catching or tearing on the prong tips.

Does the box contain 50 individual fasteners or 50 boxes of fasteners?

The package includes 50 individual steel prong fasteners, model 3160, ready for immediate use.
