FAQs

What is the main purpose of the Prym 673133 Colour Snaps Tool Set?

This tool set is designed to help you easily and securely attach Prym Colour Snaps (non-sew plastic press fasteners) to fabric projects using the Prym Vario Creative Tool or pliers.

What sizes of Prym Colour Snaps does this set work with?

The set includes tools compatible with both 12.4 mm Colour Snaps and the smaller 9 mm Colour Snaps Mini.

Do I need the Prym Vario Creative Tool to use this set?

While the set is optimized for the Vario Creative Tool, the tools can also be used in conjunction with Prym pliers.

Does this set include the Colour Snaps fasteners themselves?

No, this is a tool set only. The Colour Snaps fasteners need to be purchased separately.

How do I know which tool to use for my snaps?

The tools and their packaging are marked with a fuchsia color and indicate compatibility with either 9 mm or 12.4 mm Colour Snaps.

What materials are the tools made from?

The tools are constructed from a combination of durable metal and plastic.

Can I use these tools for other types of fasteners?

This tool set is specifically designed for Prym Colour Snaps and may not be suitable for other types of fasteners.

Troubleshooting

Snaps are not attaching securely.

Ensure the correct tool size is being used for the Colour Snap. Verify that the Vario Creative Tool or pliers are applying sufficient pressure. Check that the Colour Snap components are correctly oriented.

Tool does not fit into the Vario Creative Tool.

Confirm you are using the correct tool from the set. Ensure there is no debris obstructing the tool's base or the Vario Creative Tool's socket.

Difficulty distinguishing between tool sizes.

Refer to the fuchsia color marking on the tools and packaging. The packaging also indicates which snap size (9mm or 12.4mm) each tool is for.

Colour Snaps appear damaged after application.

Ensure the fabric is not too thick for the snap size. Re-read the instructions for correct placement and pressure application. Use new Colour Snap components if the previous ones were misapplied.
