FAQs

While a hammer and the included tool can be used, the Prym Vario pliers or a tripod for non-sew products are highly recommended for easier and faster application, especially on heavy fabrics.

How many snaps are in a pack?

Are these snaps suitable for children's clothing?

Troubleshooting
Fastener does not secure properly
Ensure the fabric is not too thick for the included tool, or try using the Prym Vario pliers. Make sure the anvil and stud parts are aligned correctly and struck with sufficient force.
Tool slips during application
Use a very firm and stable surface. Ensure the fastener parts are correctly seated in their respective tool components before striking.
Snaps do not close smoothly
Check that the fastener components are correctly attached and that no fabric is caught between the male and female parts. Ensure the fabric is not overly compressed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Prym Sport Snaps require a firm, stable surface for application. Position the fastener components on the fabric and use the included tool with a hammer to secure them. For best results and ease of use, consider using the Prym Vario pliers (sold separately).
Compatibility: These snaps are designed for heavy and stiff fabrics such as canvas, denim, leather, and thick sportswear materials. They are not recommended for very thin or delicate fabrics.
Care: The snaps are highly resistant to washing (up to 60°C), spinning, dry cleaning, ironing, and pressing. To clean fabrics with attached snaps, follow the garment's care label. The metal itself is rustproof and requires no special maintenance beyond normal fabric care.
