18 mm / 0.71 in 28L Single-Cap Rivet-Mounted Magnetic Bag Snap Plus Quality SB 10132

18 mm / 0.71 in Single-Cap Magnetic Bag Snap

This 18 mm / 0.71 in magnetic bag snap is used to create a practical closure on handbags, wallets, clutches, planners, document cases, leather goods and textile accessories.

The defining feature of this model is its single-cap rivet-mounted construction. After installation, one side of the closure displays a smooth metal cap measuring approximately 11.5 mm / 0.45 in. This provides a cleaner finish than exposed folded-prong structures.

The visible cap helps the closure function as both a fastening component and a coordinated hardware detail. When properly installed, it can improve the finished appearance and perceived workmanship of handmade, boutique and professionally manufactured bags.

What Does Single-Cap Rivet-Mounted Mean?

“Single-cap” means that one side of the magnetic closure has a visible metal cap. The cap and its mounting post are secured to the compatible magnetic component using controlled setting pressure.

The rivet-mounted structure helps create a smooth exterior finish without leaving folded prongs visible on the capped side. It is suitable for bag makers who want a clean hardware detail on the exterior of a flap or closure point.

If a finished cap appearance is required on both sides, select a double-cap magnetic bag snap instead.

Component Measurements

Before ordering, compare the available application area, visible cap diameter, total material thickness and selected setting die.

Required Installation Equipment

• A setting die compatible with the 18 mm / 0.71 in single-cap magnetic bag snap,
• A hand press, impact press or manual striking holder compatible with the die connection,
• An appropriate hole cutter for preparing the mounting hole,
• A flat and stable working surface,
• Spare application material for trial installation.

Use the 18 mm / 0.71 in single-cap magnetic bag snap setting die for the setting stage.

For professional hole preparation, the 2.5 mm / 0.10 in hole cutter may be evaluated. Confirm the actual mounting-post diameter and material construction, then test the hole fit on spare material before production.

Why Is a Hole Cutter Required?

The rivet-mounted post must pass through a clean, controlled opening in the material. Cutting the opening with an unsuitable tool may cause fraying, tearing, leather cracking, cap misalignment or a loose installation.

A compatible hole cutter helps prepare a consistent opening before the setting stage. It is especially useful for leather, faux leather, coated fabric and layered bag-making materials.

Installation Sequence

1. Mark the points where the magnetic socket and stud should meet.
2. Check the total material thickness and mounting-post length.
3. Prepare the mounting opening using an appropriate hole cutter.
4. Position the visible cap and mounting post in the correct direction.
5. Place the magnetic components according to the required opening direction.
6. Align the upper and lower setting dies on the same axis.
7. Apply controlled press pressure or a controlled manual strike.
8. Inspect the cap, magnetic alignment and application surface.

Excessive pressure may crush or distort the metal components and mark the material. Insufficient pressure may leave the cap loose. Determine the correct setting pressure by completing a trial installation on the actual material construction.
