SOHMO Glass Head Pins - Heatproof Dressmaking Pins, Pack of 150

Glass head pins that can handle the iron - no plastic head to melt. If you've ever accidentally pressed over a plastic-headed pin and watched it melt into your fabric, you'll understand exactly why glass head pins exist. SOHMO Glass Head Pins are finished with a melt-proof glass head that can be pressed directly on the ironing board without damage to the pin or to your fabric. Iron close to them, press seams flat, and keep sewing without stopping to remove every pin first. Made from nickel-plated steel with a fine 0.6mm shank, these are slender, sharp pins that glide cleanly through woven fabrics with minimal distortion. At 32mm long, they're a versatile length suited to garment sewing, quilting, dressmaking, pattern cutting, and general sewing room tasks. The colourful glass heads are easy to spot against fabric and easy to grip. Glass Head Pins are particularly useful when you're working quickly or pinning fine, light-coloured materials. These are a SOHMO cult favourite - the kind of pin that sewists restock time and time again. Packed in a reusable sliding-lid metal tin- 150 pins, in a tin worth keeping. Please note: while nickel-plated, pins should not be left in fabric for extended periods, particularly in humid or coastal environments, as corrosion may occur over time. Store in a dry place. * Pin size: 32mm long x 0.6mm diameter * Tin size: 80 x 55 x 16mm * Weight: 40g * Quantity: 150 pins * Made in China, packed in Australia * Store in a dry place Also known as: glass head pins, glass head sewing pins, glass head dressmaking pins, heatproof sewing pins, heat resistant sewing pins, melt-proof pins, ironing board safe pins, coloured head sewing pins, dressmaking pins with glass heads, tailor pins, quilting pins, sewing pins Australia, haberdashery pins
