Troubleshooting

Eyelet does not set securely

Ensure you are using a compatible setting tool and applying sufficient pressure. Check that the material is not too thick for the tool and eyelet size.

Eyelet tears the material

Make sure the material is suitable for eyelets and that the hole is not too large. Consider using a heavier weight material or a stabilizer.

Washer does not grip the eyelet barrel

Verify that the washer is the correct size for the eyelet barrel. Ensure the eyelet barrel is properly seated through the material before setting.
