40 Pack Wire Clothes Pins Heavy Duty Outdoor, Stainless Steel ClothesPins for Hanging Clothes, Metal Clothes Pegs, Clothing Clips, Laundry Pins 1.8mm Diameter 6cm Long

These are so far, the best clothes pins that I have tried so far as it pertains to securing heavier/larger items out to dry. I'm a 58 year old single guy & a retired Paramedic on a pension, so I try to do everything I can to save on energy costs - that clothes dryer in my laundry room just eats kWh. I live in NC & both a blessing and a curse, the March/April winds will dry a load of towels, blankets, even bathroom shower & floor mats nearly as fast as the dryer. The curse? Every clothespin I've ever bought locally either snaps, the spring mechanism fails or the force of the typical NW winds overpowers the strength of traditional wooden, and most certainly plastic pins. I just received these a couple of days ago and used them for several blankets, bed linens & even blue jeans with a steady wind withgusts up to 15mph as measured by my personal weather station. I was happy to see that nothing came down off the line. Not only that, unlike the aforementioned clothes pins which allows slack to form, lessening the tension and permitting large, heavy items such as bed linens to sag, that did not happen with these. I don't leave my clothespins on the line & haven't had them long enough even if I did, so I can't speak to how they may hold up to rust. I'll use my old pins for opened potato chip bags and things of that nature, but I won't be using them on the clothesline again, even on days when the winds are calm. Having been a Paramedic for 30 years, I have a tendency to use my belt & beltloops for carrying tools & other equipment; add a caribeanor to one side of the canvas bag the come in and you have easy access to your supply, not to mention much more ease of storing them when not in use. I can't say a bad thing about them, good price & they deliver what they promise.

I started looking for new laundry clips for our clothes line because I noticed the traditional bamboo/wood clips were pulling threads on my delicates and expensive bamboo baby clothing.They seem pretty thin so I was worried there wouldn’t be enough material to grip onto the clothes line, however, it works completely fine - even in high wind. I’ve not had any clothes fall off of the line or clips fall on the floor when clothes are not on the line so the grip of them is great and they don’t damage my clothes.The build quality is good, there are no sharp edges and I haven’t had any rusting from them yet. Value for money, I do wish more came in a pack but I do understand that it would cost more than wood.They look nice and sleek on the line, which isn’t necessary but a plus haha. These clips are also versatile, you can use them to hang up anything, I plan to hang a baby blanket on the wall of my nursery like a tapestry and these will work great for that!I’ve already bought more to accommodate with how large my clothesline is and how large of loads of laundry we do.

These are a fantastic alternative to those awful wood clothes pins that just seem to come apart so easily. These are stainless steel so they will not rust, a big plus! I have some of these for the clothesline I have in my garage, and the rest are used on my grid wall in my sewing room to hang patterns (these are not packaged patterns, but ones hand drawn onto heavy interfacing so they can be re-used over and over again). I thought about using bulldog clips, but when I saw these, I knew I had a winner. I needed to hang them so they are organized and easy to access. These hold multiple patterns with ease and they hang nicely on the gridwall hooks.

they work well so far, no complaints

Absolutely LOVE these clips! Durable, rust resistant and the spring strength is tight. I use them to hang clothes outside and they work perfectly. I have purchased 2 sets total, 1 at a time and both shipments have been the same quality. I would purchase again.

For tying down items in my garden or at least that’s what I got them for but now I use them for everything everywhere.

Mine have been outdoors for a few months and no signs of rust. Hold very well.

I I have a wire clothesline so these clips have a tendency if holding a sheet to slide along the wire when the wind blows.They work excellent for holding heavy denim blue jeans on the lines, even in the windiest of conditions.
