Stainless Steel Pushpins

Rust Free!

Stainless Steel Pushpins

5/22/19 Unfortunately, we lost our supplier for these push pins. You may purchase our Rust Resistant replacement here

Great for stretching silk and other fabrics for painting, and they don't stain the fabric when wet because the pin part is stainless steel. The handles are sturdy but light weight aluminum. They actually have many more uses than stretching fabric. Way stronger than the plastic ones you get at the store. My "useful stuff" (junk) drawer would be naked without 'em!

If you notice a grayish residue on the heads of the pins it is from the zinc stearate that they used to lubricate the aluminum heads as they go through the machines. The zinc stearate is not harmful (it is actually a common ingredient used in foundation makeup). To remove it, either some dish soap and hot water, or alcohol should clean it off.

100 pins per box.

Work fine for stretching silk--they are tougher than normal office-supply pushpins so they go into the wood stretcher frame more easily. Sometimes one will snap off or the tip is not pointed-sharp but I guess that's to be expected in a box of 100 anything.

Pins are still good but these left black marks all over my hands. I contacted Dharma they contacted the manufacturer: i learned I needed to clean the pins myself (alcohol works) as their cost for cleaning them before shipping has increased!
