paper clamp

Holds sheets together

A paper clamp is a device for holding sheets of paper together, typically a spring-loaded metal clip that grips papers between two flat surfaces.

Larger and sturdier than a paper clip, it's designed for thicker stacks: Use a paper clamp for documents too bulky for a stapler.

Also called a binder clip.
