Taking the classic Universal® Paper Clips to a new level, these enhanced yet still economical, high-quality paper clips feature a smooth plastic coating to provide an additional level of protection to your documents. The otherwise traditional design delivers the same tight-fastening performance, just with an added level of protection against creasing, crumpling, tearing or otherwise marring the individual sheets. Durable steel wire is fully covered in a thin layer of plastic, but it flexes exactly as it should without becoming easily bent out of shape.
