Frequently Asked Questions about FTO Collar Pins

Question 1

What is the exact size of each pin?

Each individual pin measures approximately 1 inch in length and 3/8 inch in height. This sizing is standard for public safety collar brass, ensuring it fits neatly on most uniform shirt collars without overlapping the edges.

Question 2

Are the gold and silver pins made of the same material?

Yes, both versions utilize the same durable metal base. The only difference is the exterior finish: the IN97S is plated in polished nickel for a silver look, while the IN97G is plated in polished gold to match gold-toned uniform hardware.

Question 3

Does one order include enough pins for a full uniform?

Yes, these are sold in pairs. When you purchase this item, you receive two identical pins, which is the standard requirement for wearing matching insignias on both the left and right collar points of your uniform.

Question 4

How do I clean these pins if they get dirty?

To maintain the high-shine finish, simply wipe them with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive pads, as these can wear down the gold or nickel plating over time and dull the reflection.

Question 5

What kind of backings do these pins use?

These pins use standard metal clutch backings. The back of each pin has two sharp posts that slide through the fabric and are held in place by the clutches, which prevents the pins from rotating or falling off during movement.
