Paper Weights

Loose washable/replaceable calico bag covers using Velcro brand fastners to secure the internal weight bag. Internal waterproof weight bag can be used without the loose calico cover. Ideal when weighing down wet repairs. When the weight bag becomes soiled/dirty simply wash the cover or replace with a new one. The steel shot is firstly sealed inside a polyethylene bag then further sealed inside a 50 micron polyethylene tubing and finally covered with a calico bag.

They have the feel of a heavy beanbag being soft and weighty giving surface protection while holding down curling charts, maps, posters and prints. Paper conservators use them to hold down papers during conservation especially when digitizing and for camera work.
