3/8” Spring Clips - Z Clips for Picture Frames and Window Screens
S-HWR-SPCLX
About the product
Spring clips are thin, flexible metal strips fixed to the underside of a picture frame channel to hold a frame’s contents in place. A spring-loaded design applies pressure against the backing or matting while pressing the photo or artwork to the front of the frame, providing just the proper tension to secure artwork. Spring clips are an excellent solution to prevent artwork that is too thin to fill up the rabbet or frame channel from folding or falling out.
