Description
This small fitting turns a hole in the fabric into a passage that lasts for years. The stated size is Ø 4 mm. Sold as 50 pieces. Made from brass.
Thin cloth needs a reinforcement underneath, or the eyelet will pull through the fabric over time. On drawstring bags, hoods and lace-up closures they sit exactly where daily pulling happens. 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. Anyone sewing regularly likes to keep such notions in duplicate.
What Prym eyelet with washer 4,0mm in Silver is suitable for
- Lace-up closures on bags and pouches
- Curtains and home decoration
- Craft work with paper and leather
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.
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.
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.
