These specialized #4 (1/2") self-piercing brass eyelets deliver exceptional holding power for demanding projects. Crafted from premium, heavy-gauge brass (a 70% copper, 30% zinc alloy), the tactical Military Black Oxidized finish provides a long-lasting, non-reflective, and resilient surface. This finish actively resists rust and wear, making it the top choice for industrial fabrics and camouflaged canvas gear. The included integrated gripping washers firmly anchor the eyelets, optimizing retention on thicker materials such as outdoor tents, commercial tarpaulins, and large display banners. Installation is swift and professional; these heavy-gauge self-piercing components cut and set in one fluid motion, dramatically improving efficiency and guaranteeing superior, enduring outdoor results.

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.
