Silk Fabric Sharp Stainless Steel Pins

Sharp, rustproof #2 insect pins for piercing thin, sheer fabrics such as silk, lace, or satin without tearing. Ideal for textile testing, crafts, and conservation labs and won't leave a hole or any trace.

When precision matters, #2 stainless-steel insect pins are the tools of choice for piercing delicate fabrics such as silk, chiffon, or fine lace. Their thin, polished shafts slip smoothly through tight weaves, minimizing fiber tearing and distortion. The stainless finish resists corrosion, ensuring consistent sharpness even when used repeatedly. They're also heat-resistant and convenient for pressing & can be ironed over without damaging the underlying material.

Beyond sewing or embroidery, these pins are valued in forensic textile analysis, museum restoration, and materials science labs where maintaining fabric integrity is critical. Each pin’s fine point allows controlled insertion into woven or layered materials, making them excellent for calibration of test rigs or alignment of sensor patches on cloth substrates.

Don't take chances with your valuable museum collectibles. Unlike cheap nickel plated brass, these are made with high grade Swedish steel that will absolutely never rust. If you are working with vintage materials, lace, or skinny patchwork pins (0.4mm) that are even thinner check the Technical section which lists all pin diameters in mm & by wire gauge.
