When strength and corrosion resistance are non-negotiable, select our #2 (3/8") self-piercing grommets made from premium 304 Stainless Steel. This marine-grade alloy offers outstanding durability, resisting rust and stains even in humid, challenging outdoor conditions. The #2 size is the most common size of self-piercing grommet in use. When set the purchase point created is both strong and very low profile. The high chromium content allows the material to "self-repair" against minor scratches, ensuring a clean, modern appearance with minimal maintenance. These grommets are great for projects like small boat covers, marine upholstery, industrial awnings, banners, tarps, tents and flags. The self-piercing design means the strong steel cuts through and sets with the washer in a single forceful action, providing a robust, long-term fastening solution.

Great for:

• Banners
• Tarps
• Flags
• Light Canvas Projects
• Bags
• Shoes
• Shower Curtains

A note about grommets: There are many types. Most marine applications require heavier rolled rim spur grommets. These grip the fabric, so they don’t turn in the fabric hole. They are also much heavier in construction since the metal edges are rolled under. The self-piercing style are lighter weight grommets without rolled edges. They are ideal for utility-type projects. Some have smooth washers while others have small gripper teeth. The teeth help to keep the grommet from rotating and damaging the surrounding fabric, much like the heavier spur grommets.

Grommet dies must be matched to the grommet type. They cannot be interchanged.
