What is a notice board pin made of?

A notice board pin is made from a combination of materials to offer durable performance. The main parts of a notice board pin include the head and the pin shaft. All notice board pins have a metal shaft that's strong enough to penetrate into corkboard or bulletin boards. A notice board pin with a plastic head is lightweight and ideal for holding lighter items. On the other hand, a notice board push pin with a metal head and shaft is more durable and can withstand repeated use. It is suitable for holding heavier items.

Types of notice board pins

Push pins for notice boards come in a wide range of designs to suit specific buyer preferences. A standard push pin is the most common type and is suitable for general use. It has a wider, flat head with a cylindrical body. The flat head provides a stable surface for users to press and remove the pin. A thumbtack pin is similar to a push pin but has a small nail-like needle with a flat, rounded head. The head is easy to press down with a thumb. This thumbtack can securely hold various papers and materials in place on cork boards, walls, and other surfaces. It is a perfect choice for home and office planning notes or bulletin boards. However, it requires users to use some light force when pressing into the notice board.

A map pin has a longer and thinner shaft with a round head. Some map pins feature head designs that look like small flags or colors that represent different countries. The pin is mostly used to mark specific locations like landmarks, restaurants, hotels, or tourist attractions on a map. A magnetic notice board pin has a magnetic head rather than a pointed pin. It attaches well to a magnetic pinboard, metal and other magnetic surfaces. Magnetic pins leave no holes or marks on the items being attached. A decorative push pin has a decorative head that comes in different shapes, sizes, colors, and patterns. Some examples include pins with flower-shaped heads, animal-shaped heads, or pins adorned with beads or rhinestones. It allows users to personalize the appearance of notice boards by making them visually appealing. Buyers can also choose to customize or brand pin heads with logos, images, or stylish designs for promotional purposes.
