18 mm / 0.71 in Double Cap Magnetic Bag Snap Setting Die KLP0018MCK

18 mm Double Cap Magnetic Bag Snap Setting Die

This 18 mm / 0.71 in Double Cap Magnetic Bag Snap Setting Die is a three-piece iron die set used to install compatible rivet-style magnetic bag snaps. It supports controlled pressure during application, helping keep the visible cap surfaces aligned and the magnetic closure positioned cleanly on bags, wallets, portfolios, organisers and leather accessories.

This product is a setting die, not a magnetic snap. The magnetic components, press and any required hole-preparation tool are separate items. Final quality depends on matching the actual snap design, cap profile, material thickness and press connection to the die.

Compatible Magnetic Snap System

This die is intended for the 18 mm / 0.71 in double cap, rivet-style magnetic bag snap system. The compatible snap creates a finished capped appearance on both sides of the fastening point.

18 mm / 0.71 in Double Cap Magnetic Bag Snap is the matching closure format for this application die.

What Does Double Cap Mean?

A double cap magnetic bag snap uses capped, rivet-style visible surfaces on both sides of the installed closure. This makes it suitable for bag flaps, wallets, portfolios, organisers and other applications where the reverse side of the fastening point remains visible.

The die supports the rivet-style mounting form of this specific magnetic snap system. A matching diameter alone does not make other closure structures compatible.

Not for Every 18 mm Magnetic Closure

Do not assume this die will fit every 18 mm magnetic bag closure. Double-prong snaps, sew-on snaps and single-sided rivet magnetic snaps can use different component geometry and setting surfaces.

• Double-prong magnetic snaps may require their own compatible installation method.
• Sew-on magnetic snaps are attached through sewing holes and do not require this setting die.
• Single-sided rivet magnetic snaps may use a different cap and reverse-side structure.
• Magnetic closures with a different diameter or cap profile need separate compatibility confirmation.

Does This Tool Punch the Material?

No. This is a Magnetic Bag Snap Setting Die. It does not punch holes or slots in leather, fabric or other materials.

When the actual magnetic snap construction requires material preparation, select the Hole Cutter according to the real fastening section rather than the visible 18 mm / 0.71 in snap diameter. Test the actual snap, lining, reinforcement layer and outer material together before production.

Suitable Applications

• Handbags and shoulder bags
• Wallets, card holders and portfolios
• Document cases and organiser products
• Leather and faux-leather accessories
• Canvas and textile bag components
• Boutique, craft and small-batch production
• Repeat workshop applications using a compatible press

Press Compatibility

Use this die with a physically compatible hand press or impact press. The available M6 and 1/4 in connection options must be selected only after checking the actual die holder, thread diameter, thread pitch and press alignment.

M6 and 1/4 in are different connection standards. Similar diameters do not confirm safe mechanical compatibility. A compatible Manual Hand Press can be used after the physical connection has been verified.

Correct Application Sequence

1. Select the compatible 18 mm / 0.71 in double cap magnetic bag snap.
2. Check cap geometry, fastening construction and total material thickness.
3. Mark the snap position on the bag flap or body panel.
4. Prepare the material only if the actual snap construction requires a hole or slot.
5. Position the magnetic components in the correct die surfaces according to their actual assembly sequence.
6. Apply controlled, centred pressure with a compatible press.
7. Install the mating magnetic half in the matching position.
8. Test alignment, closing action, cap appearance and fastening security.

Frequently Asked Questions

What magnetic snap is this die for?

It is for the compatible 18 mm / 0.71 in double cap, rivet-style magnetic bag snap system.

Does this die include the magnetic snap?

No. This product is the setting-die set only. Magnetic snaps are purchased separately.

Can this die be used for double-prong magnetic snaps?

Not automatically. Double-prong magnetic snaps use different fastening geometry and require their own verified installation method.

Can it be used for sew-on magnetic snaps?

No. Sew-on magnetic snaps are mounted through sewing holes and do not require this press die.

Does this die punch holes in the material?

No. Hole preparation is a separate operation and must match the actual fastening section of the selected magnetic snap.

Can it be used with a hand press?

Yes, when the die holder, thread connection and press alignment are physically compatible.

Why should a sample installation be made first?

Material thickness, lining, reinforcement layers and cap geometry can affect closure alignment and surface finish. A sample helps confirm the correct pressure and setting result.
