What Are Mattress Clips?

Mattress clips are metal fastening components used to connect springs, border wires, support wires and other structural elements in bedding and upholstered furniture assemblies. During installation, a compatible hand-operated or pneumatic clinching tool closes the clip around the selected components.

These clips are commonly used in innerspring mattress production, sofa spring assembly and automotive seat manufacturing. Related clinch clip products are also used in fencing, animal cages, wire mesh panels, gabions and selected industrial wire products.

The correct clip must provide a suitable closed shape around the components being joined. Clip width, height, material thickness, opening profile and tool jaw geometry all affect the finished connection.

Types of Mattress Clips and Clinch Clips

Hartco-Style Mattress Clips

Hartco-style clips are used for connecting wire components in mattresses, upholstered furniture and related spring assemblies. KYA lists several Hartco clip models, including M46, M48, M65, M85, M87, M88, M95 and M96 series products.

Hartco clip references can help buyers identify an existing fastener, but the number alone should not replace dimensional and tool compatibility checks. Confirm the clip profile, open dimensions, closed geometry and clinching tool requirements before ordering.

Vertex Clips for Mattress and Wire Assembly

Vertex-style clips are available in different profiles and sizes for spring wire, border wire and industrial wire connections. KYA lists models including 64A18S, 68H18S and 88H23S, together with other Vertex clip references.

When replacing an existing Vertex clip, compare the complete part number, open clip dimensions, material and closing tool specification. Similar-looking clips can have different working widths, heights and closure requirements.

Strip-Collated Clinch Clips

Strip-collated clinch clips are arranged in connected strips for use with compatible magazine-fed clinching tools. The connected format supports successive fastening during mattress, furniture and industrial wire assembly operations.

KYA lists strip-collated steel clinch clips, including 68H18S models. The strip design, clip spacing and clip dimensions must match the feeding mechanism and closing jaws of the selected tool.

Roll-Collated Mattress Clips

Roll-collated mattress clips are connected in continuous coils for use with compatible roll-fed fastening equipment. Selected configurations use polyethylene cording to keep the clips organized during feeding.

KYA lists roll mattress clip products such as CCP-32 for bedding and furniture applications. Coil size, clip count and machine compatibility depend on the selected model.

Loose Clinch Clips

Loose clinch clips are individual fasteners that can be used with compatible hand tools or other approved clip-closing equipment. They may be suitable for assembly operations where a magazine-fed strip or roll system is not required.

Select the loose clip according to the wire diameter, clip opening, finished closure shape and tool jaw specification.

Spring Anchor Clips

Spring anchor clips are used in specified furniture spring support assemblies. KYA lists the RV-1 / ACE-1 sinuous spring anchor clip among its related fastening products.

Spring anchor clips perform a different fastening function from ordinary wire-to-wire clinch clips. Confirm the intended spring support arrangement, clip geometry and installation method before selecting a replacement.

Mattress Clip Materials and Finishes

Galvanized Steel Mattress Clips

Selected KYA mattress clips are manufactured from galvanized steel for applications requiring a protective zinc-based finish. Galvanized clips are used in bedding, upholstery and industrial wire assembly according to the individual product specification.

Corrosion resistance depends on the coating type, coating thickness and exposure conditions. Confirm the specific finish before selecting clips for outdoor or moisture-exposed applications.

Cold-Rolled Steel Mattress Clips

KYA also lists cold-rolled steel options for selected clinch clip products. Material thickness, forming characteristics and the required finished closure should be considered when selecting clips for production equipment.

Material availability varies by clip reference. Specify the required steel material and surface treatment when requesting a quotation.

Applications of Mattress Clips and Clinch Clips

Mattress Spring and Border Wire Assembly

Mattress clips are widely used to connect innerspring components, border wires and support wires during mattress manufacturing. The clip is positioned around the selected components and closed using compatible clinching equipment to form the required connection.

Clip selection depends on spring wire diameter, border wire diameter, joint geometry, open clip dimensions and the required finished closure.

Sofa Springs and Upholstered Furniture

Hartco-style and clinch clips are used in specified sofa, chair and upholstered furniture assemblies to connect stay wires, sinuous spring systems and other wire components. Spring anchor clips are also used in certain furniture frame support arrangements.

Verify the spring construction, frame arrangement and fastening method before choosing the clip model.

Automotive Seating Production

Selected wire clinching clips can be used in automotive seat spring and support-wire assemblies. Clip shape, fastening position and closure performance must match the seating assembly specification and production equipment.

Wire Mesh and Animal Cages

Clinch clips are used for connecting compatible wire mesh, animal cage panels and wire products. The correct clip size depends on the number of wires, wire diameter and required connection geometry.
