18 mm / 0.71 in Single Cap Magnetic Bag Snap Setting Die KLP0018MTK

18 mm / 0.71 in Single Cap Magnetic Bag Snap Setting Die

This 18 mm / 0.71 in Single Cap Magnetic Bag Snap Setting Die is a three-piece metal die set for installing compatible magnetic bag snap closures with a visible capped surface on one side. It supports controlled pressure and cleaner alignment during installation on handbags, wallets, portfolios, organisers, leather goods and textile accessories.

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

Compatible Magnetic Snap Structure

This die is intended for compatible 18 mm / 0.71 in single cap magnetic bag snaps. A single cap system provides a capped, decorative metal appearance on one visible face of the finished product, while the reverse side uses the fastening components required by that snap design.

18 mm / 0.71 in Single-Sided Magnetic Bag Snap is the matching closure type for this setting die.

Why Single Cap and Double Cap Systems Are Different

A single cap magnetic snap and a double cap magnetic snap can have the same visible diameter while using different cap geometry and reverse-side fastening structures. The setting surfaces must match the actual snap construction.

Do not treat this die as an automatic replacement for a Double Cap Magnetic Bag Snap Setting Die. Use a separate double-cap die when the closure has visible capped components on both sides, unless physical die compatibility has been specifically confirmed.

Not for Every Magnetic Closure

• Double-prong magnetic snaps may require a different installation method.
• Sew-on magnetic snaps are installed through sewing holes and do not need this press die.
• Double cap magnetic snaps can require different upper and lower setting surfaces.
• Different snap diameters or cap shapes require separate compatibility confirmation.

Does This Tool Punch Holes or Slots?

No. This is a Magnetic Bag Snap Setting Die. It does not punch holes, make slots or cut leather, fabric or reinforcement material.

Where the selected magnetic snap requires material preparation, choose a Hole Cutter according to the actual post, claw or fastening section. Do not choose the hole size from the visible 18 mm / 0.71 in snap diameter.

Suitable Applications

• Handbags and shoulder bags
• Wallets, card holders and portfolios
• Organisers, pouches and document cases
• Leather and faux-leather accessories
• Canvas and textile bag components
• Boutique, craft and small-batch workshop production

Press Compatibility

Use this die with a physically compatible hand press or impact press. The M6 and 1/4 in options are different die-connection standards. Confirm the actual die holder, thread diameter, thread pitch and press alignment before ordering or setting up the die.

A compatible Manual Hand Press can be used after physical connection compatibility is verified.

Correct Application Sequence

1. Select the compatible 18 mm / 0.71 in single cap magnetic bag snap.
2. Check the cap profile, fastening structure and total material thickness.
3. Mark the closure position on the bag body or flap.
4. Prepare a hole or slot only if the actual snap design requires it.
5. Place the magnetic components in the correct die surfaces according to the snap assembly sequence.
6. Apply controlled and centred press pressure.
7. Set the mating magnetic half in the matching position.
8. Check closing alignment, magnetic holding strength, cap appearance and fastening security.

Frequently Asked Questions

What magnetic snap is this die for?

It is intended for compatible 18 mm / 0.71 in single cap magnetic bag snaps.

Are magnetic snaps included?

No. This product includes the three-piece setting-die set only.

Can this die set double cap magnetic snaps?

Not automatically. Double cap systems can use different upper and lower setting surfaces, so physical die compatibility must be confirmed first.

Can it be used with double-prong magnetic snaps?

Not automatically. Double-prong magnetic closures use a different fastening method and may require a different installation tool.

Does this die punch holes in leather or fabric?

No. Hole or slot preparation is a separate operation selected for the actual fastening section of the chosen snap.

Can it be used with a hand press?

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

Why should I make a sample first?

Material thickness, lining, reinforcement layers and closure geometry affect the final result. A sample confirms the required pressure, alignment and surface finish before repeated production.
