Nickel Plated Chicago Screws

Nickel plated Chicago screws, also sold as screw posts or binding posts, are two-part fasteners: a threaded post and a slotted screw cap that closes with a flat-blade screwdriver. The steel body carries real load and the bright nickel plating resists corrosion, so joins stay strong and tidy on gear that gets used. Unlike a rivet, they undo cleanly - swap a buckle or adjust a strap without cutting anything.
