Our take on the 120pc Chicago Screws Binding Post Assortment Kit

A 120-piece assortment of stainless steel Chicago screws (binding posts) in M5 size, used to join leather, wood, acrylic and metal without glue. The kit covers a range of post lengths so one box handles belts, journals, knife sheaths and signage. Stainless steel resists rust better than the common plated brass sets. Pricing on this kit sits in the budget tier for M5 stainless assortments, so it is an easy add-on rather than a considered purchase.

Questions and answers

Are these strong enough for a leather belt?
Yes. M5 stainless posts are a common choice for belts and straps, and the screw-together design lets you swap them out. Use a thread locker if the belt sees heavy daily wear.
What does M5 mean here?
M5 is the thread size, about 5 mm across, with a slotted screw head. The posts are thicker than M4 or M3 sets, so they suit medium to heavy material rather than thin cardstock.
Will they rust?
The listing states stainless steel, which resists rust far better than plated brass. Salt water and prolonged soaking can still affect any stainless hardware, so dry pieces after wet use.
What can I use them on?
Leather goods, knife sheaths, journal covers, acrylic signage and light wood assemblies. They are not a substitute for structural fasteners in load-bearing wood joints.
Is this kit worth it over buying one length?
If you work on varied projects, the mixed lengths save repeat orders. If you only make one product, buy a single length in the count you need.
When is it cheapest?
Craft-supply assortments like this tend to dip during seasonal sales and back-to-school craft promotions. Check the price history before buying a large quantity.
