FAQs

What is included in the Hemline Kam Plastic Snaps Starter Kit?

The kit includes 15 sets of 12.4mm KAM plastic snaps. You will need to have your own KAM snap pliers tool to apply them.

Do I need a special tool to attach these snaps?

Yes, a KAM snap pliers tool is required to securely attach these plastic snaps to fabric. This tool is typically sold separately.

What size are the snaps?

The snaps in this kit are 12.4mm in diameter.

Can these snaps be used on any fabric?

These snaps are suitable for a wide range of fabrics, including cotton, fleece, and vinyl. However, they work best on fabrics that are not excessively thick, generally one to three layers.

Are these snaps waterproof or rust-proof?

Yes, KAM plastic snaps are made of durable plastic and are inherently rust-proof and resistant to corrosion. They are also generally machine washable and dryable.

How many projects can I complete with this kit?

The kit contains 15 sets of snaps, which is suitable for multiple small to medium-sized projects, such as several baby bibs, a few small bags, or closures on clothing items.

Troubleshooting

Snaps are not closing properly.

Ensure the KAM snap pliers are correctly aligned and that the snap components are fully seated in the pliers. Check that the fabric thickness is not exceeding the recommended limit for the snaps.

Snap component is not attaching securely to fabric.

Verify that the prong of the stud or socket is properly piercing the fabric and that the pliers are applying enough pressure to set the snap securely. Ensure the fabric is not too thick or too thin.

Pliers are difficult to use.

Check that the snap components are correctly inserted into the corresponding dies of the pliers. Make sure there are no obstructions and that the pliers are functioning smoothly. Lubrication might be needed for older tools.
