Description

Large Silver Arch Turn Button Clip – U12 Complete Guide

The Large Silver Arch Turn Button Clip (SKU: U12) introduces a spring-action arch design to the turn button clip family. The 3 mm bow pressed into the clip body creates inherent spring tension that locks the backing board firmly in place without requiring precise screw torque, making it an excellent choice for framers who want quick, reliable backing installation.

Why Choose the Large Silver Arch Turn Button Clip?

Traditional flat clips require careful torque control β€” over-tighten and the moulding cracks; under-tighten and the backing rattles. The U12 Large Silver Arch Turn Button Clip self-regulates clamping force through its 3 mm arch, delivering consistent results every time.

Key Dimensions

Total length: 24.8 mm. Head width: 8 mm. Tail width: 7 mm. Hole diameter: 3 mm. Thickness: 0.3 mm. Arch height: 3 mm.

Installation

Seat the backing board. Fasten the arch clip with an M3 screw finger-tight. Rotate 90Β° to lock β€” the arch springs against the backing board automatically. No over-tightening needed.

FAQ

What is the benefit of the 3 mm arch?

The arch creates spring tension when the clip rotates to the locked position, pressing the backing board firmly without over-tightening the screw.

Does the arch affect clip height above the frame back?

Yes. The 3 mm arch protrudes 3 mm above the frame plane. Ensure hanging hardware or dust cover tape accounts for this.

Is 0.3 mm steel durable enough for regular use?

Yes. The arch geometry distributes stress, allowing thinner steel to achieve sufficient clamping force. The arch also provides a tactile 'click' feel when locked.
