7-Piece Eyelet Setting Die Set – 6 Sizes with Long-Handle Hand Setting Tool KLP002-028SET

This 7-piece eyelet setting tool set brings together six commonly used eyelet die sizes and one long-handle hand setting tool. It is a practical choice for workshops, textile accessory sellers, sample rooms, leather crafters, bag makers and users who work with several eyelet sizes instead of a single application.

The set includes setting dies for No. 2, No. 3, No. 4, No. 5, No. 24 and No. 28 eyelets. The included long-handle tool allows the dies to be used for manual hammer setting, making the set useful for sampling, repairs, small-batch production and jobs where a press is not available.

Please note: Eyelets and a press machine are not included. The package contains six setting dies and one long-handle hand setting tool.

Six Eyelet Sizes in One Practical Set

Using separate dies for different eyelet sizes helps keep the application more controlled and reduces the need to purchase each tool individually. The set covers the following approximate eyelet sizes:

• No. 2: approximately 5 mm
• No. 3: approximately 10 mm
• No. 4: approximately 12 mm
• No. 5: approximately 8.5 mm inner diameter
• No. 24: approximately 10 mm inner diameter
• No. 28: approximately 13 mm inner diameter

The number printed on an eyelet does not always indicate its exact inner diameter. Eyelets from different manufacturers may also have differences in tube height, washer structure or body dimensions. For this reason, select the setting die according to the actual eyelet system and measurements, not only the size number.

Where Can This Eyelet Die Set Be Used?

The set is suitable for eyelet applications used in textile products, leatherwork, bags, footwear, clothing, curtains, banners, hobby projects and repair work. It can help workshops that frequently switch between different eyelet sizes keep the necessary setting tools together and ready for use.

Possible applications include:

• Bag and leather accessory production
• Garment and workwear details
• Shoe and boot eyelet applications
• Curtains, banners and fabric panels
• Craft, sampling and prototype work
• Repairs and small production runs

Manual Setting with the Long-Handle Tool

The included long-handle hand tool provides a straightforward solution for manual application. Fit the appropriate setting die to the tool, position the matching eyelet components correctly and apply controlled hammer strikes on a firm, level work surface.

Before starting a production run, make a test application on a spare piece of the same material. This simple check helps you determine the correct hole size, eyelet position and striking force while reducing the risk of damaging the material or deforming the eyelet.

Hole Preparation and No. 28 Application

Most eyelet applications require a correctly sized hole before setting. A hole that is too narrow may damage or distort the material, while an oversized hole may prevent the eyelet from holding securely. If your material needs to be prepared before installation, you can review the compatible grommet punching dies.

The No. 28 die is intended for the corresponding self-piercing eyelet system. However, piercing performance can vary depending on the thickness, density and layered structure of the material. Always test the application first; dense, thick or multilayer materials may still require a pre-punched hole.

Choosing Compatible Eyelets

Eyelets are not included with this tool set. You can choose the required sizes from our eyelets and grommets category. Check the eyelet’s inner diameter, outer diameter, tube dimensions and washer structure before ordering.

A matching size number alone does not guarantee compatibility. The upper and lower parts of the setting die must fit the shape and dimensions of the selected eyelet. If you are unsure, send us a photo and the measurements of your eyelet before purchasing.

Die and Machine Compatibility

The included long-handle tool is supplied for manual hammer setting. If you plan to use any of the dies with a press or another machine, the die connection and thread structure must also be compatible with that machine.

For machines commonly used in Türkiye, the standard compatible connection is normally selected by default. International customers using a machine manufactured outside Türkiye should pay particular attention to thread compatibility; an M6 connection may be required. If you are unsure about your machine, please contact us with a photo of the die mounting point and the machine model before ordering.

The tool can also be expanded later with technically compatible dies for other applications. Depending on your machine or hand-tool system, you may add dies for different eyelet sizes, snap fasteners, rivets, jeans buttons or fabric-covered buttons. This makes it possible to build a broader application setup over time without replacing the entire working system.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are eyelets included in the package?

No. The package contains six eyelet setting dies and one long-handle hand setting tool. Eyelets and washers must be purchased separately.

Is a press machine included?

No. A press machine is not included. The supplied long-handle tool is intended for manual hammer setting.

Can all six dies be used with the hand setting tool?

The set is supplied as a coordinated manual application package. Select the die that matches the eyelet and carry out a test application before starting production.

Does the eyelet size number guarantee compatibility?

No. Products carrying the same size number may differ in inner diameter, tube height, washer structure and body shape. Compare the actual measurements and eyelet system before use.

Does the material need to be punched before setting?

Most eyelet applications require a correctly sized pre-punched hole. The No. 28 system is designed for the corresponding self-piercing application, but thick, dense or multilayer materials may still need hole preparation.

Can these dies be fitted to a press machine?

Possible compatibility depends on the machine’s die mounting point and thread structure. International machines may require an M6 connection. Contact us with the machine model and a photo of its mounting point if you need confirmation.

Can I add other application dies later?

Yes, provided that the new die’s application system, dimensions and connection structure are compatible with your tool or machine. Compatible dies may allow the same setup to be expanded for snap fasteners, rivets, jeans buttons and fabric-covered buttons.
