Swatch Fastener: Press-fit eyelets for sample fans and documents
Wherever thin materials such as paper, textile samples or plastic films need to be held together in a way that allows movement yet remains secure, the Swatch Fastener is the first choice. This press-fit eyelet is characterised by its flat design and simple installation by hand pressure. It not only serves as an axle for swatch books, but its 12 mm wide head also protects the perforations in your samples from tearing.
Technical details and application benefits
The design by moog & langenscheidt is engineered for maximum functionality with minimum material thickness:
- Shaft diameter (5.4 mm): Ensures stable guidance of the sample sheets and fits into all standard holes.
- Through-hole (2.7 mm Ø): A special feature that allows ball chains or safety loops to be threaded through to secure the fan against loss.
- Flexible colour selection: Choose transparent for a discreet look, white for light-coloured designs or black for elegant contrasts.
- Tool-free assembly: The two parts of the print eyelet snap securely into place with a simple manual press.
Applications: Promotional materials, fashion and crafts
These Snap Studs with Hole are indispensable for the production of colour charts, paint samples or fabric collections. They are also valued in print finishing for bundling small brochures or information cards into fan-shaped stacks. As they are made from high-quality plastic, they are lightweight, corrosion-free and gentle on materials – ideal for daily use in consultations or sales areas.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
This fastener is optimised for a stack height of up to 3 mm. It is ideal for a few sheets of paper, thin plastic films or individual fabric samples.
The Swatch Fasteners are designed for a permanent connection. Once snapped into place, the eyelet can only be opened again with considerable force or using a tool, which offers a high level of tamper resistance.
We recommend a hole diameter of approx. 5.5 mm to 6 mm so that the sheets can rotate smoothly around the 5.4 mm thick shaft of the eyelet.
