FAQs

What material are these eyelets made of?

These eyelets are made of brass with a silver-colored plating.

How do I apply the 11mm eyelets?

You will need a hammer and the provided application tool. Place the eyelet through the fabric, add a washer on the back, and strike the tool with the hammer to secure them together.

Are these eyelets suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, the brass construction is rust-proof, making them suitable for various conditions, though prolonged extreme exposure may affect the plating over time.

Can I use these on thick materials like leather?

Yes, they are suitable for fabric, leather, canvas, and similar pliable materials, provided the material can accommodate the 11mm diameter.

How many eyelets are in a pack?

Each pack contains 15 eyelets and 15 matching washers.

Can I use these eyelets with the Prym VARIO pliers?

The 11mm and 14mm eyelets are designed primarily for hammer application. Smaller sizes (4.5mm and 8mm) are compatible with VARIO pliers, but specific dies might be required for the 11mm size if using pliers.

What is the exact inner diameter of these eyelets?

The inner diameter is approximately 11mm (or 0.43 inches).

Troubleshooting

Eyelet does not apply cleanly

Ensure the hole punched in the fabric is the correct size. Make sure the eyelet and washer are properly aligned before hammering. Use a firm, consistent strike with the hammer.

Eyelet feels loose after application

The hole may be too large, or the hammer strike was not firm enough. Try repositioning the eyelet and washer and apply more force with the hammer. For best results, use a solid surface underneath.

Hammer misses the application tool

Ensure you are using the correct application tool for the 11mm eyelets and that it is seated directly onto the eyelet post. Maintain a steady hand during hammering.

Material tears around the eyelet

The fabric may be too thin or delicate for an 11mm eyelet, or the hole was punched too large. Consider using a reinforcing patch behind the fabric or a smaller eyelet size.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Prepare your material by marking the desired location for the eyelet.
  2. Punch a hole in the fabric using an appropriate tool (e.g., a hole punch or awl) that matches the inner diameter of the eyelet.
  3. Insert the eyelet through the hole from the right side of the fabric. Place a washer onto the protruding post of the eyelet on the reverse side.
  4. Place the eyelet and washer assembly onto a firm, flat surface (like a block of wood).
  5. Using the provided application tool and a hammer, strike the top of the tool firmly to fold the washer over the eyelet post, securing it in place.

Compatibility:

  • These eyelets are compatible with fabric, leather, canvas, and other pliable materials.
  • The 11mm size is specifically designed for application with a hammer and the provided tool, or Prym's VARIO pliers or tripod if equipped with the correct die set (sold separately).

Care:

  • The brass material is rust-proof. Clean with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the silver plating.
