Description
For cords and laces: the eyelet holds the edge so the fabric cannot fray. Made in the size Ø 14 mm. Supplied as 10 pieces. The material is 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. For belts, bag handles and labels they are the small piece of hardware that makes a homemade item look finished. The work takes two steps: punch the hole, then press the two parts together. Once an eyelet sits firmly, it no longer turns.
What Prym eyelet with washer 14 mm in Burnished is suitable for
- Drawstrings at hoods and cuffs
- Craft work with paper and leather
- Labels and tags
Frequently asked questions
Which fabrics do they suit?
Firm wovens, leather, felt and tarpaulin hold on their own. Thin or stretchy cloth needs an interfacing underneath so the eyelet cannot migrate through. A strip of webbing or leather inside spreads the pull as well.
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.
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 far from the edge do they go?
Enough fabric must remain so nothing tears out: roughly one eyelet width from the edge, and on soft cloth rather more than less. With several eyelets a drawn line keeps the row straight.
