Monforts Clip and Pin Double Use Clip
A double use clip for Monforts stenters, built to work as both a clip and a pin holder on the same rail. A tenter or stenter carries fabric continuously in open width with precise width control, and the two ways of holding the fabric are pins and clips. A clip stenter needs a definite edge, preferably a selvedge, and is usually confined to woven fabrics. Pin stenters run pins about 5 mm long in two rows at 3 to 4 pins per cm and leave pinholes in the selvedge. This part lets one machine do both. Reference weight 0.76 kg.
Key Benefits
- Runs as a clip or as a pin holder, so one rail covers woven and knitted work
- Removes the need to change the whole rail when the fabric mix changes
- Silver finish metal, 0.76 kg reference weight
- Made for Monforts machines and matched against your sample
Application Scenarios
- Mills whose fabric mix moves between wovens and knits
- Machines that would otherwise need two rail configurations
- Contract finishers taking mixed work
Who It Is For
- Woven fabric finishers running Monforts clip stenters
- Maintenance teams rebuilding a clip rail
- Machinery dealers holding clip stock for local mills
Problems It Solves
- Having to reconfigure a whole rail when the fabric mix changes between woven and knitted goods.
- Turning down knitted work because the machine is set up as a clip stenter.
- Running two machines where one flexible rail would do.

How It Compares
| Compared With | What Changes |
|---|---|
| Clip only references | A clip-only rail holds the edge flat but cannot take knitted goods that have no firm selvedge. The double use clip removes that limit. |
| Pin plates | Pins run faster under higher tension but mark the selvedge. The double use clip lets you choose per order rather than per machine. |
Fitting and Replacing This Part
Step 1
Stop the chain and let the clips cool before working on the rail
Step 2
Note how the clip sits on the chain before removing it
Step 3
Fit the new clip, then open and close it by hand to check the knife action
Step 4
Turn the rail through one full pass and watch the clips open at the delivery end
Step 5
Replace clips in complete sets so grip is the same the whole way along

Monforts Clip and Pin Double Use Clip Questions
What does clip and pin double use mean?
The same part can hold the fabric as a clip, gripping the selvedge with a knife, or carry pins. One rail then covers both woven and knitted work.
Do I still need separate pin plates?
Ask us with your machine details. We quote the double use clip with the matching pin components so the assembly is complete.
Is it heavier than a normal clip?
Yes, 0.76 kg against 0.65 kg for a standard clip. That is the cost of carrying both functions.
What is the delivery time?
7 days for standard parts. Matched-to-sample parts are quoted with their own date.
