FAQs
What tools are required to attach these snaps?
You will need the Prym VARIO pliers for non-sew products or the specific Prym “Color Snap Mini” tools set. These are sold separately.
Can these snaps be used on thick materials?
These snaps are best suited for medium-weight fabrics. For very thick materials, they might not provide a secure hold, and alternative fasteners may be more appropriate.
What does 'Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 Class 1' mean?
It means the snaps have been tested and certified to be free from harmful substances, making them safe for direct contact with skin, especially for babies and young children.
How many snaps are in a pack?
Each blister pack contains 36 snap fasteners.
Can I iron the fabric with the snaps attached?
Yes, you can iron the fabric. It is recommended to use a low heat setting and avoid direct, prolonged contact with the snaps themselves if possible.
What is the diameter of these snaps?
The diameter of these snaps is 9 mm.
Are these snaps suitable for outdoor garments?
While durable, they are primarily designed for clothing and accessories. For heavy-duty outdoor gear requiring extreme weather resistance, specialized fasteners might be better suited.
Troubleshooting
Snaps do not close properly.
Ensure the top and bottom parts of the snap are correctly aligned and that the tool is pressing firmly and evenly. Check that the correct tool set for this snap size is being used.
Attachment tool is not gripping the snap.
Verify that you are using the correct size die within your Prym VARIO pliers or tool set that matches the 9mm snap diameter. Ensure the snap parts are seated correctly in the tool.
Fabric tears around the snap after attachment.
This may indicate the fabric is too thin or weak for the snap, or that excessive force was used during attachment. Reinforce the fabric area with interfacing before attaching snaps on very delicate materials.
Snaps come loose after washing.
Re-press the snaps with the appropriate tool to ensure a secure fit. Confirm that the washing temperature does not exceed 60 degrees Celsius.
