The matching tool for Color Snaps: it centres the parts and presses them together evenly. It measures 19.5 cm. Sold as a single item. Made from steel, plastic.
The tool attaches fastenings and hardware where a seam no longer helps — quickly, repeatably and without a single stitch. With everything centred in the insert, pressure spreads evenly and the fastening comes out round rather than oval. The matching insert decides everything: size and design must belong to the fastening, or the part will sit crooked.
What Prym Love Vario Zange mit Loch-/Color Snaps Werkzeug Pink 390902 is suitable for
- Setting snap fasteners on garments
- Fitting eyelets into bags and pouches
- Working with leather and felt
Frequently asked questions
Does the tool fit every size?
No, insert and size belong together. The pack states which parts the set is meant for; anyone working several sizes needs the matching inserts as well.
Do I need a base underneath?
For hammer work, yes: a firm, smooth base that absorbs the blows. An ordinary table keeps the dents, and pressure fails to spread evenly. A piece of hardwood or a stone slab serves the purpose perfectly.
How much force does it take?
Less than many expect. Pressure comes from the lever, not from the arm; working in jerks hits worse than pressing steadily. Gripping the pliers at the very end of the handles takes noticeably less force.
Can it undo a fastening as well?
Removal has its own sets. A setting tool works in one direction; using it backwards usually damages both fabric and fastening. The matching removal tool sits with the fastenings in the range.
