• Aluminum Screws Posts – Also called Chicago screws, these are the most popular style. They easily screw together and apart for quick and easy editing. They come in silver, black, gold, or antique brass colors, and the largest range of sizes from 1/8” to 5”. Extensions are also available to expand the capacity further.

• Steel Screw Posts – These function just like the aluminum, for easy screwing closed and open. They are made of a sturdier steel which comes in silver and sizes from 1/4” to 2”. They are perfect for heavy duty applications and extensions are also available.

• Plastic Snap Lock Screw Posts – Most users choose to snap these closed, creating a semi-permanent bind that can be difficult to pull apart. They can also be screwed together, though it is not as smooth as the metal as only 1 side is threaded.

• Plastic Snap Lock Screw Posts with Loops – These work just like the snap lock posts above, but have a loop on one end that is perfect for hanging. Pair with a ball chain, string, fishing line, or any other material. They are white to pair well with most signs and boards, and come in sizes from 3/16” to 1”.

• Plastic Push Lock Posts – These are smaller binding posts meant to hold as few as just 2 sheets flush and cleanly. They are clear and come in either a small head or large head option.
