FAQs
Are these pins magnetic?
No, these are traditional brass drawing pins designed for use on soft surfaces like cork, not for metal magnetic whiteboards.
What is the head diameter of these pins?
The head diameter is exactly 9.5mm, which provides a comfortable grip for your thumb.
Can these be used on drywall?
No, these pins are specifically designed for soft notice boards and will not penetrate or hold in drywall or plaster.
How many pins are in a pack?
Each pack contains 100 individual drawing pins.
Will the pins rust if used in a damp environment?
The brass finish is resistant to corrosion, but it is recommended to keep them in a dry, indoor climate to ensure they stay in top condition.
Troubleshooting
Pin bends during insertion
Ensure you are pushing straight into the board and not at a harsh angle against a hard backing material.
Pin will not stay in the board
The cork surface may be worn out. Try moving the pin to a fresh area of the board where the material is denser.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Durable brass construction resists rust
- Large pack size provides great value
- Standard 9.5mm head size is easy to handle
- Sharp points minimize board degradation
Cons
- Not designed for use on masonry or wood

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These pins require no assembly or special setup; simply press the head into your target surface using your thumb. They are fully compatible with most standard cork notice boards and soft-surfaced partitions.
To ensure the longevity of your pins:
- Keep them in the provided container when not in use to prevent loss or injury.
- Avoid using them on surfaces that are too thin, as the sharp point may damage the backing behind the board.
- Store in a dry environment to keep the brass finish clean and bright.
