Organizing your documents shouldn’t require extra tools, messy glue, or metal fasteners that bend your will along with the paper. The XFasten Self-Adhesive Fasteners give you a clean, professional solution for securing paper stacks in folders, binders, and reports—minus the hassle.
Choose from two installation methods depending on your setup: hole-mounted for standard punched folders or surface-adhered for flexible placement. Both deliver secure hold and easy access.
Method 1: Hole-Mounted Installation
Ideal for folders with standard 2-hole or 3-hole punches.
Step-by-step:
-
Insert the prongs through the punched holes of your folder from the inside. Ensure the flat base sits flush against the folder surface.
-
Peel off the adhesive liner slowly from the back of the fastener base. Avoid touching the exposed adhesive.
-
Position horizontally across the folder's inner flap. Align carefully and press down firmly for a secure bond.
-
Stack your documents by sliding the pages over the upright prongs.
-
Bend the prongs outward or inward to lock the stack in place.
Pro Tip: Use a ruler or edge guide to keep fastener alignment consistent across folders. This enhances visual neatness and stacking compatibility.
Method 2: Surface-Adhered Installation
Perfect for folders without pre-punched holes or when custom positioning is required.
Step-by-step:
-
Select the location along the folder’s inner spine or flap where you want to install the fastener. Mark with a pencil for accuracy.
-
Peel off the adhesive backing gently to expose the sticky base.
-
Align vertically, keeping it straight from top to bottom. Press firmly along the entire base to ensure long-term adhesion.
-
Insert your documents by piercing them through the prongs, then bend the tips to secure.
Pro Tip: For added durability, wait 30 minutes after installation before loading documents. This allows the adhesive to bond fully.
💡 Extra Tips for Best Results
-
Surface Prep is Key: Wipe down folder surfaces with a dry cloth before sticking. Dust or oils reduce adhesive strength.
-
Apply Even Pressure: Use a bone folder or the side of a pen to press the fastener base evenly after applying.
-
Avoid Repositioning: The adhesive is strong—but not forgiving. Align carefully before final placement.
-
Heavy Document Loads? Use both installation methods together: mount through holes and adhere the base. Double the hold, none of the drama.
With XFasten Self-Adhesive Fasteners, your documents stay in place—cleanly, securely, and professionally. Whether you're prepping reports for a meeting or archiving client files, this solution makes organization effortless and future-proof.
