A clip for extension is a small plastic clip that holds a dual form or tip firmly against the natural nail while the gel underneath sets. M1 Nail & Beauty Supply stocks gel extension clips from MNBS in clear, blue, pink and red.
How to choose extension clips
- Clear for a plain look. The Clip For Gel Extension - Clear is the neutral option for any station.
- Colours to tell sets apart. The same clip comes in Blue, Pink and Red, so each tech can keep a colour of their own.

Extension clip FAQ
What is a gel extension clip used for?
After you load gel into a dual form or press a tip onto the nail, the clip pinches it in place so it does not slide while the gel sets. It helps keep the fit tight at the cuticle and sidewalls; take it off before filing and finishing.
How do I clean extension clips between clients?
Remove any gel residue, wash the clips with soap and water, then disinfect them with a salon disinfectant that is safe for plastic, following the contact time on the label. Let them dry before storing, and replace any clip that cracks or loses its grip.
