Description
Product Overview
Clip Strip’s Price Channel Chips are engineered to meet the demanding needs of modern retail environments. Each chip is fabricated from clear, high‑impact polycarbonate that is both lightweight and durable, measuring precisely 2 inches in length and 1.25 inches in height with a 10‑mil thickness. This transparent construction allows barcode and UPC scanners to read labels without interference, while the material’s water‑resistant properties safeguard labels from condensation, spills, and freezer frost. The chips are supplied in a convenient 500‑piece pack, each backed by a cardboard carrier and a pressure‑sensitive adhesive liner that keeps the chips together until the moment of installation, ensuring a tidy workflow for store staff.
The design incorporates a snap‑fit groove that locks securely onto the edge of standard gondola shelving. This groove can accommodate both concave and convex shelf edges, providing a stable platform for price tags, promotional stickers, and inventory labels. Because the chips are reusable, retailers can reposition them as merchandising layouts change, reducing waste and lowering long‑term operating costs. The clear plastic also offers a subtle visual profile that does not distract shoppers, while still delivering a robust barrier against label wear and tear.
Technical specifications include a weight of just 4.6 ounces for the entire pack, making it easy to handle and store. The product dimensions of the packaging are 2.64 x 2.48 x 2.05 inches, fitting comfortably on standard retail shelves or in back‑room inventory areas. The model number PCHC‑200‑010CL identifies this specific size and thickness, ensuring compatibility with existing shelf hardware. As an American‑owned brand with over four decades of experience, Clip Strip guarantees consistent quality and reliable performance across every unit.
Customers consistently rate these chips highly for their ease of use and durability, with an average rating of 3.9 stars based on multiple reviews. The product’s best‑seller rank of #24 in the Price Tags & Holders sub‑category reflects its popularity among retailers seeking a cost‑effective solution for label protection. Whether deployed in high‑traffic grocery aisles, chilled sections of a supermarket, or the compact displays of a convenience store, these chips deliver consistent performance and help maintain a clean, professional appearance for all price‑related signage.
Usage
Retailers can install Price Channel Chips on any gondola shelf edge where price tags or barcode stickers are displayed. In grocery stores, the chips are especially valuable on refrigerated and frozen sections, where condensation can cause label smearing. By placing a chip over the label, the underlying adhesive is protected from moisture, extending the life of the label and preserving accurate pricing information.
Convenience stores and dollar stores benefit from the chips’ quick‑snap installation, allowing staff to update pricing or promotional signage in seconds during busy periods. The reusable nature of the chips means they can be removed, repositioned, or replaced without leaving residue on the shelf, a critical feature for maintaining a pristine retail environment. Liquor stores, which often use glass shelving, also find the chips useful for protecting price tags from spills and handling wear.
Beyond traditional retail, the chips are suitable for use in warehouse inventory systems where barcode labels are affixed to shelving. Their clear construction ensures that scanners can read the codes without obstruction, while the sturdy plastic resists abrasion from forklifts or pallet jacks. The versatility of the chips makes them an essential accessory for any operation that relies on clear, legible labeling.
