FAQs

Does this kit include a hammer?

No, a hammer is required to use the punch and setting die tools but is not included in the set.

Can I use this on leather?

This kit is optimized for synthetic tarpaulins and fabrics; it may not be suitable for thick, hardened leather.

Are the eyelets rust-proof?

The eyelets are brass-coated steel, offering good resistance to corrosion, though they should be kept dry when possible.

What is the diameter of the eyelets?

The eyelets are standard sized for common tarpaulin repairs included in this 30-piece professional kit.

How do I ensure the hole is the right size?

Use the provided hole cutting tool included in the kit, which is specifically sized to match the diameter of the eyelets provided.

Troubleshooting

Eyelet is not crimping tight enough

Ensure you are using a firm, solid surface underneath the anvil and that the hammer strikes are square and forceful.

The hole cutter is struggling to pierce the material

Check that the cutting edge is clear of debris. If the material is exceptionally thick, fold it or use the cutter in a rotating motion to help break through the fibers.

Pros and Cons

  • Complete kit with everything needed for installation
  • Rust-resistant brass-coated eyelets
  • Easy to use for occasional and professional repairs

Cons

  • Requires a separate hammer for operation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your repair kit, store all tools in a dry environment to prevent corrosion. When using the hole cutter, always place a piece of scrap wood beneath the fabric to protect your work surface and prevent the cutter edge from dulling. The kit is compatible with most standard tarpaulin weights. After use, wipe the tools clean with a light machine oil to maintain the carbon steel surface integrity.
