FAQs
What tools are needed to attach these eyelets?
You will need a specialized tool such as the Prym VARIO Creative Tool (Article no. 673 131), VARIO pliers, or the included tool with a hammer. The packaging indicates compatible tools.
How many eyelets and washers are in this refill pack?
This refill pack contains 80 pieces of eyelets and 80 corresponding washers.
What material are the eyelets made of?
The eyelets are made of brass, ensuring durability and rust resistance.
Can I use these eyelets on very thick materials like leather?
Yes, these eyelets are suitable for various materials including canvas, denim, and leather, provided the attachment tool is capable of handling the thickness.
Are the eyelets prone to rusting?
No, the eyelets are made of brass and are rustproof, designed for long-lasting use.
What is the diameter of these eyelets?

Can I attach these eyelets without a special tool?

Troubleshooting
Eyelet does not attach securely
Ensure you are using the correct tool for the 5 mm eyelet size. Verify that the material is not too thin or too thick for the eyelet. Re-align the eyelet and washer and apply firm, even pressure during attachment.
Eyelet attachment tool is not working
Confirm that the tool is set up correctly for the 5 mm eyelet size. Check for any debris or misalignment in the tool or eyelet. Consult the tool's specific instructions.
Material tears around the eyelet
The material might be too thin or not reinforced. Consider using a stabilizer or a heavier fabric. Ensure the eyelet and washer are centered properly before pressing.
