Composite decking clips are primarily categorized by material: plastic clips (for WPC composite flooring) and stainless steel clips (for composite flooring). Made from a polymer composite material, plastic clips are lightweight, compact, and offer excellent moisture and chemical resistance, ensuring stability in outdoor or humid environments. They are also relatively inexpensive to produce, making them suitable for projects with limited budgets and strict weight requirements. In contrast, stainless steel clips, made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, offer increased strength and durability. Their snap-on design ensures that the flooring remains firmly in place after assembly and can withstand greater loads, making them particularly suitable for applications requiring long-term use or heavy loads. When selecting a clip, users simply need to choose between lightweight, economical plastic clips and high-strength, durable stainless steel clips, based on the project's budget, operating environment, and load-bearing requirements. This ensures a secure installation and long-term use of composite flooring.
