FAQs
How do I attach these snap fasteners?

They are made of high-quality, rustproof stainless brass.
What is the diameter of these snaps?

Can I use these on heavy fabrics like denim?
These fasteners are best suited for medium-thickness fabrics like jerseys. For heavier fabrics, you might need a larger or stronger type of snap fastener.

Do I need special tools to apply them?

Troubleshooting
Fastener not closing securely
Ensure both parts of the fastener are correctly aligned and that sufficient pressure was applied during attachment. Check fabric thickness suitability.
Tool not working properly
Confirm the correct alignment of the fastener parts within the tool. Ensure the hammer strikes are firm and direct. Consider using Prym Vario Pliers for a more consistent result.
Fabric tearing around the fastener
This can occur with very thin or delicate fabrics. Consider reinforcing the fabric area before application or using a lighter touch during fastening. Ensure the fastener is appropriate for the fabric weight.
Fastener coming loose after attachment
Re-apply the fastener with more pressure. Ensure the fabric has enough body to hold the fastener securely. For very slippery or thin fabrics, consider a fabric stabilizer.
