Is Reiche on Sale? November 2026

Questions and answers

What is in the Reiche Chicago Screws Assorted Kit?

It holds Chicago screws, also called binding posts or sex bolts, in assorted lengths and matching barrel nuts. The nickel plating resists tarnishing on indoor projects. Sizes vary by kit, so check the listing for the length range before buying.

What are Chicago screws used for?

They join two pieces with a flat, removable fixing: leather belts and journal covers, knife and gun holsters, scrapbooks, signage and acrylic panels. Unlike rivets, they unscrew, so the joint can be taken apart and reused. The assorted lengths cover thin card up to thicker stacked material.

How do I install them?

Drill or punch a hole the diameter of the post, push the post through both pieces, then thread the barrel nut on and tighten by hand or with a flathead screwdriver. Do not overtighten, or the leather or acrylic can crack. A drop of thread locker keeps them from loosening with use.

Does Reiche offer a warranty on this kit?

Reiche sells through third-party retailers, so the return window and any warranty come from the store you buy from, not from Reiche directly. Keep the packaging and receipt until you have checked the fit. Defective plating or missing pieces are usually handled as a store return.

Are these screws strong enough for leather belts and holsters?

Yes for most craft and light-duty use: the plated metal posts hold firm under normal wear and are the standard fitting for belts, bags and holsters. For heavy load-bearing joints, use a longer post so the nut seats fully through the material. Check that the post length matches your stacked thickness.

Are there Reiche discount codes?

Deal.ai checks what Reiche products actually cost at every store, so a real markdown shows on this page as a deal as soon as it starts, and each product's page has its price history to tell a sale from its usual price.
