Zinc screen clips (often made from die-cast zinc or zinc-plated metal) are small hardware fasteners designed to hold window screens, storm windows, and glass panels securely in place against window or door frames.
Key Characteristics
Corrosion Resistance: The zinc coating or zinc alloy construction protects against rust, weather exposure, and humidity, making them far more durable than plastic clips.
Various Offsets: They come in multiple standard offset sizes (e.g., 1/16", 1/4", 5/16", 3/8", and 7/16") to match the thickness of different screen frames and storm panels.
Swivel/Latch Design: Many feature a single-screw mounting hole that allows the clip to pivot or rotate, making seasonal insertion and removal of screens or storm glass simple.
