Cloth diaper pins and fasteners are essential for securing prefold, flat, and contoured diapers without covers that have built-in closures. Whether you prefer the classic reliability of stainless steel diaper pins or the modern convenience of Snappi fasteners, you'll find the right option here.
Types of Cloth Diaper Fasteners
Snappi Fasteners — A no-pin alternative that grips the diaper fabric with T-shaped teeth. Fast, safe, and reusable. Great for parents who want to avoid pins entirely.
ABZ Fasteners — Similar to Snappis with a comfort contour edge. Fits preemie through adult sizing.
Plastic-Headed Diaper Pins — Stainless steel pins with a safety-locking plastic head. Available in multiple colors. The classic choice for prefolds and flats.
Tips for Using Diaper Fasteners
Always close pins when not in use to prevent accidental pokes
Run pins through a bar of soap or beeswax to help them glide through fabric more easily
Snappis and ABZ fasteners work best with fabrics that have some texture or weave — they grip well on birdseye, gauze, and flannel
