Brass hollow rivets join firm materials where a seam would not carry. The stated size is Ø 7.5 mm. Sold as 25 pieces. Produced from brass.
An eyelet that still turns has had too little pressure and will come loose as soon as the fabric is pulled taut — set it more firmly straight away. On drawstring bags, hoods and lace-up closures they sit exactly where daily pulling happens. The work takes two steps: punch the hole, then press the two parts together. Once an eyelet sits firmly, it no longer turns. The pack states the size, so buying more later stays easy.
What Prym Hohlnieten, 3-4mm, silberfarbig, 25 Stück 403170 is suitable for
- Lace-up closures on bags and pouches
- Curtains and home decoration
- Craft work with paper and leather
Frequently asked questions
Do they rust?
The parts are brass and therefore rust-free. Even after several washes the surface stays as it was, as long as no scouring agent touches it.
Which size matches which cord?
The inner diameter decides: the cord should glide through easily but not rattle. When in doubt, measure the cord and pick the next size up.
Can an eyelet be removed again?
Hardly ever cleanly, because its rim is folded over. So test on a scrap before starting on the good piece. At worst, cut the piece of fabric out and set a patch beneath.
How many does a drawstring bag need?
A simple bag with a drawstring needs only a few at the corners. A full-height lacing is counted in pairs, kept at even intervals.
