Screw Posts

We carry more than 20 sizes of screw posts (also called “Chicago Screws”) and screw posts extensions, all of which are made of solid aluminum and are 100% recyclable. These reusable binding posts are a great choice for swatch books, architectural and engineering drawings, or any other application that requires loose sheets to be securely bound together. Click here to see our entire selection of recyclable aluminum screw posts.

Using paper punched on a traditional plastic comb binding system, thisbinding system inserts a patented PaperCombthat securely binds documents and allows them to be easily stacked and stored. The materials used to produce the PaperCombs are environmentally-friendly and can be recycled, making the PaperLock binding system a functional and “green” addition to any office. Click here to learn more about the PaperLock binding system.
