We have the experience and the know-how

Founded by Bob Valentine, MC2 began as a photocopy and binding company in 1976. The company had a vast inventory of binding equipment but there was a particularly high demand for Chicago screws from customers. Eventually this part of the company grew and ultimately Mr. Valentine sold the photocopy center and retained the Chicago screws and binding equipment division of the company. MC2 now specializes in Chicago screws, a product that is quite unique on the market. The company launched on the web as early as 1994 and was tremendously successful.

Variety of materials and colors for Chicago screw posts

MC2 offers a multitude of Chicago screw posts in various materials and colors. Our Chicago screw posts are available in aluminum, brass, poly, stainless steel and chrome (steel zinc). Poly Chicago screws are stocked in black, white and clear. Because of the flexibility of the plastic threads in poly screws, they can be snapped together with finger pressure which saves significantly on assembly time - but they may still be unscrewed in the normal manner. Button snaps are an alternative to Chicago screw posts when dealing with very thin documents and can be used where something more elegant than a staple is required. The plastic version will hold together about 4 sheets; the metal version will hold a maximum of 8 sheets.
