wrestling pins

Why purchased: I had previously bought a packet of black safety pins identical to the structure and size of these. I liked the festive colors of these (see pic). Use: My primary use is to tie the back of my chemo cap ties for the right size. But also keeps pairs of socks and pillowcases or towels together or sheets to the mattress. No babies so not tested on diapers. They are pretty stiff and sharp and can do the towels, haven’t found (tested) a firmness and thickness that failed, not that they are awesome, just limited testing. Structure and function: See pic, verified that they are 2” (~50 mm) in length. Stainless steel, limited exposure to water (laundry) thus far but no rust to date. See pics but oddly, these are made to use by left-handed users. If held in the right hand, the opening for inserting the pin is out of site on the bottom. I find in my uses thus far the metal part of the pin is sturdy enough and sharp enough for what I have used (as described above). I like the festive colors. I have about 20 of the pins and (see pic) I have one of the plastic ends crack. The plastic cap does have a seam around the end crack so maybe not a surprise that the pin could break through as the pressure from the pin is firm enough to keep closed. Overall: One-star deduction due to breakage, but maybe a “one off” will continue to monitor. Lots of potential uses and nice colors.

Perfect size, perfect closure

Using them very heavily, maybe I'm to rough with them, but several have bent and opened. Maybe could be a little less short going into closure, but again, I am rough on them.

quick ship. Easy to open. Large size. Plastic head.

My son does youth wrestling, and we have been using safety pins to represent every pin that he gets during his tournaments. Especially love these as the plastic is large enough that I can write the date of his accomplishment on the pin.

Item As Described. Works well.

The pins delivered quickly. The quality of the pins are questionable. The pin itself is very thin and not sturdy. They bend when putting through fabric. You have to be very careful using them.

Muy buenos
