Medium Clear Plastic Melon-Seed Turn Button Clip – U28 Complete Guide

The Medium Clear Plastic Melon-Seed Turn Button Clip (SKU: U28) is the 20 mm transparent backing clip in XKY Framing’s invisible-hardware series. With a standard 3 mm hole and 1.2 mm body, it provides reliable medium-frame backing retention that remains visually unobtrusive on light or transparent mounting surfaces.

Why Choose the Medium Clear Plastic Melon-Seed Turn Button Clip?

As frame sizes grow beyond 30 × 40 cm, backing clips become more visible from oblique viewing angles. The U28 Medium Clear Plastic Melon-Seed Turn Button Clip’s optical clarity ensures it remains inconspicuous even at close inspection distances, making it the hardware of choice for high-end transparent and light-toned frame assemblies.
