About this icon
Use the Bx Paperclip icon
Icons in the outline style — like Bx Paperclip — are designed for app navigation bars, toolbar buttons, form labels, and UI controls where clarity at 16–24px is critical. Use it across document management systems, admin panels, file explorers, CMS dashboards, cloud storage UIs, and PDF viewers for a consistent, professional look.
IconStash's editor lets you fine-tune color, size, and stroke width in real time, then export in the format that fits your workflow: SVG, PNG, JSX, or CSS background-mask.
Export formats
Copy clean SVG vectors with one click, generate custom-size PNG files from 16px to 512px, export JSX/React components ready to paste into your project, or use the icon as a CSS background-mask for flexible theming.
All exports are based on the same editable vector — so the Bx Paperclip icon stays pixel-perfect at 16px, 24px, 48px, and any large marketing size.
Design & UX integration
Aesthetic characteristics
Boxicons gives Bx Paperclip a slightly chunkier, more rounded treatment than most outline sets, and ships Regular, Solid and Logos variants. The Logos subset — brand marks redrawn to match the UI icons — makes it a practical single-dependency choice for marketing sites.
UX best practices
In file explorers, document lists and CMS dashboards, put the Bx Paperclip icon immediately to the left of the filename so the eye scans one straight line. If it triggers a destructive action, keep a confirmation step — a delete or archive glyph is too easy to hit by accident in a dense list.
Use in your project
React / npm — Boxicons
npm install react-icons
import { BxBxPaperclip } from 'react-icons/bx';
// JSX usage:
<BxBxPaperclip size={24} />Copy the SVG markup directly from the IconStash editor to use the Bx Paperclip icon without any npm package — paste it into HTML, JSX, or a design tool.
