A paper clip is usually a thin wire in a looped shape that takes advantage of the elasticity and strength of the
materials of its construction (usually steel or some other metal, but sometimes plastic) to compress and
therefore hold together two or more pieces of paper by means of torsion and friction. Some other kinds of paper
clip use a twopiece clamping system.Recent innovations include multicolored plasticcoated paper clips and
spring-fastened binder clips.
