How to use / When it’s useful

Quick answer: Use this nastrino on uniform ribbon bars, multi-place metal ribbon mounts, or as a replacement/collector item. Select the mounting style (clamp or screws) and the finish (flat or Elite) when ordering.

In most cases, the 37 mm format fits standard ribbon bar systems and multi-place portanastrini used by police and military surplus collectors. Choose the loose ribbon option if you only need the fabric strip, or order pre-mounted for ready-to-wear installation.

Care and notes

Basic care keeps the ribbon looking its best and ensures secure mounting; choose options carefully before purchase.

• Avoid abrasive cleaners; gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth for dust and light dirt.
• Select the correct mounting type (clamp or screws) at checkout to match your ribbon bar.
• Sold only in the 37 mm format—confirm size compatibility with your portanastrini.
• Limited availability: order promptly if you need the item for a uniform or collection.
