3-inch Stainless Steel Heavy Duty Chip Clips

Don’t waste your time on plastic or cheap chrome-plated steel chip clips with weak springs that lose their tension over time. Your food will go stale quicker and you’ll pay more in the long run replacing cheaper clips when they break or wear out. At just under a dollar per clip, you can’t beat these heavy duty stainless still units.

These clips actually hold the bag closed tighter than the plastic ones that are twice as wide. Why waste all that room when they’re stored in a drawer when you can buy a clip that is stronger, more durable, and is only half the size?

I like how much clamping force these have. Excess trapped air (and the moisture in contains) in packaging is the main culprit when food goes stale. I can tightly seal the semi-rigid plastic packaging on a *check size* bag of coffee beans with one of these, which I couldn’t do with even the largest of the plastic chip clips. A tight seal is important for anything going into the freezer to minimize the chance of freezer burn.

With a one-inch capacity (this refers to the distance between the clamps when you open them), these clips are perfect for chips, bread, cereal, coffee, cookies, and much more.

I ordered a set of these clips (they come 12 to a box) in November 2017. They still work as well as the day I got them, so I recently ordered an additional box.
