Company Detail
Thank you for your interest in AMS Products!
Art Materials Service, Inc. (AMS) was founded in 1976 to provide reliable generic hardware to the
aluminum picture framing industry. By 1985, AMS became the world’s largest manufacturer of metal
hardware to this industry with a reputation for high quality and fair prices. Our continually expanding primary product line consists of metal hardware to assemble, hang, and secure aluminum, wood
and plastic picture frames. Other items in our line include self-locking protective corrugated corners,
mounting materials, laminating films, wire, easel backs, and a growing selection of hand- and airoperated machines used for the installation of AMS parts.
Most prices are quoted as “cost per thousand” (or “M”) parts.
In order to avoid problems with the decimal, remember that $10.00/M parts = $0.01/each part.
Please Note: Minimum invoice value for domestic orders has been decreased to $150.00.
Orders under $150.00 will incur a $35.00 handling fee.
$300.00 minimum order for exports.

AMS EZ Wire System Instructions
Feed EZ Wire through the properly sized sleeve and hardware (Step #1). Pass the wire back thought the sleeve
(Step #2). The standard procedure is to pass the wire through the sleeve twice, but you can slip the wire through a
third time if you prefer (Step #3). Next, firmly crimp the sleeve and wire together using our special crimping pliers
(Step #4). We recommend making two side-by-side crimps on each sleeve. The sleeve and crimp are now secure
(Step #5). To finish the job, repeat this procedure on the opposite side of the frame.
