Smead's self-adhestive fasteners have helped our office save time and money. We must have hard copies of everything as part of our legislative work. Sometimes the papers we receive are hole-punched in unusual ways, making the use of standard file folders with fasteners already in place impossible to use. We use these self-adhesive fasteners to create customized files that fit each unique need. These self-adhesive fasteners stick to the file folder for years! We have some files as old as 15 years and the fastener is holding on strong. Great quality, as usual, from Smead!
