FAQs

Can I use these on denim?

No, these are designed for jersey and fine knit fabrics and may not provide enough holding power for thick, heavy denim.

Are the fasteners machine washable?

Yes, they are rustproof and designed to withstand frequent machine washing.

How many fasteners are included?

The pack contains 10 complete fastener sets.

Do I need a hammer to install these?

The specialist tool is designed for manual pressure, but a light tap with a rubber mallet can sometimes assist if you are having trouble securing them by hand.

What is the diameter of these fasteners?

Each fastener measures 12.5mm.

Troubleshooting

Fastener does not stay closed.

Ensure the fastener was pressed firmly enough with the installation tool to fully engage the locking mechanism.

Fabric puckering around the snap.

Use a small piece of lightweight interfacing behind the fabric area where the snap is being placed to provide additional structural support.

Tool is difficult to align.

Mark the exact center of your placement with a tailor's chalk or disappearing fabric pen before attempting to set the fastener.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Rustproof material ensures longevity in wash cycles
  • Gentle fastening strength protects delicate knit fabrics
  • Comes with a complete installation tool and instructions
  • Attractive mother of pearl appearance

Cons

  • Not suitable for heavy-duty fabrics like denim or canvas
  • Limited to 12.5mm size only
  • Requires manual assembly with the provided tool

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, place your fabric on a firm surface. Use the provided specialist tool to pierce the fabric slightly if necessary, then insert the pronged side through the material. Align the back piece and use the tool to press down firmly until you hear or feel a snap. Ensure the fabric is pulled taut but not stretched during application to prevent puckering. For care, these fasteners are fully machine washable; ensure they are snapped shut before washing to avoid snagging on other items in the drum.
