Plastic SnapGraphics Gripper
Poster & Banner Hangers
Now hanging posters, signs and banners is a snap. Simply open, insert any graphic up to 70 mil (.070") thick and snap closed and the SnapGraphic Gripper will hold your graphic with incredible strength, torque and care. The patented design closes easily with the graphic inserted, and the gripper lobe engages and compresses the graphic against a soft cam surface creating incredible retaining power. Because of the unique design, no scoring, pockets, or other special graphic treatments are required, so you can change graphics in seconds and reuse them as often as desired.

Normal production time is 4-5 days if you're ordering a graphic with your display hardware. Hardware only orders usually ship in 1-2 days. During the order process you will be asked if you have a specific due date, and if you do, we will adjust your shipping method, if necessary, to get your order to you on time. If you need your printing order even quicker, we also have a rush service. If you authorize rush charges, we can get your order shipped in 1-2 days. Rush charges are $75 per order. If we're able to meet your deadline without bumping other jobs, we won't actually charge the rush charge, but you must authorize the rush to guarantee delivery.
While these products come in specific sizes, they are actually all cut to order so we don't stock any of the sizes in house. They are all made to order and shipped directly from the manufacturer.
This depends on the material you are hanging. The SnapGraphic style is nice because it works with any material up to 70 mil (.070") thick. The EasyGraphic style works with slightly thicker materials up to 93 mil (.093") thick and is very easy to use since you just push the graphic up into the holder and it grabs hold. Unless you have a stiff material, though, the EasyGraphic style won't work so if you're not sure what kind of material you will be using, or want a product that will work with a variety of materials, the SnapGraphic is the best way to go.
This is a matter of personal preference, but we like the clear because it's less noticeable and doesn't hide any of the graphic. The silver is nice for high tech look, or to give the appearance of metal. Depending on your design, the white or black also look good and can complement your graphic or frame it. Keep in mind that you should not use the black plastic EasyGraphics in windows or anywhere they will be exposed to direct sunlight because they absorb the heat and will warp.
During the order process, you will be presented with shipping options, and their respective costs, so you can choose which shipping method you would like. You are not required to complete the order at this point, so you can use this as a means of determining the shipping cost. If you would like to find out the cost of shipping before starting an order, you can use our Price Calculator which will also allow you to enter the shipping zip code and state to get a shipping cost.
Also, while it's common sense for most people, the shipping cost is not related to the price of the item, but is based on the size, weight and destination. We have customers who are sometimes surprised at the shipping cost, especially for for large items. Keep in mind that the shipping cost is being determined by the size, not the weight, for larger items so you could order several kits and the shipping cost wouldn't change much because they would all fit in the same box.

You can cut the SnapGraphics to a smaller size, as all the sizes are cut from master lengths. We recommend a fine tooth saw or hacksaw. With the plastic versions, you can even use a sharp utility knife, but this will be a little mor e difficult.
SnapGraphics can be ordered in custom sizes, but in our opinion, it's not cost effective unless it's for a large order as the manufacturer charges a premium to set up their equipment to cut something other than a standard size. You can cut them to size yourself however. See the question above.
If you need to hang longer graphics, we recommend using the Oval SnapGraphics or Aluminum SnapGraphics because the regular plastic version is not rigid enough to keep from bending with longer graphics. Check out the FAQ on the Aluminum SnapGraphics page for info on joining multiple sections together for even larger graphics.
EasyGraphics are sold as a kit with the top, bottom and hanging clips. If you only need the top, you can just leave off the bottom. You can also use the bottom as a top for another graphic if you order extra Universal Hanging Clips, shown on the Accessories tab.
