Galvanized eyelets and grommets are large metal hole-reinforcement components used in tarpaulins, tents, awnings, banners, vinyl signs, curtains, truck covers, outdoor textiles, protective covers and technical fabrics. They help support the edge of a prepared hole, create a controlled passage for ropes, cords, hooks or fixing points and provide a practical fastening area on the product surface.
In the E-Dugme galvanized eyelets category, buyers can compare No 66 round galvanized eyelets and oval galvanized eyelets. The round option is suitable for large circular fastening points, while the 42 mm x 23 mm oval option can be evaluated for long-slot fastening openings in tarpaulin, awning, banner and technical textile projects.
What Are Galvanized Eyelets?
A galvanized eyelet is a metal capsule installed around a prepared hole in tarpaulin, fabric, canvas, banner vinyl, coated textile or technical textile surface. Once applied with the correct washer and setting die, the eyelet supports the material around the hole and creates a controlled passage for ropes, cords, hooks, ties or fixing components.
Inner diameter determines the passage size. Outer diameter affects the visible surface coverage. Barrel height affects compatibility with material thickness. Washer type and hole shape affect how the eyelet sits on the surface after installation.
How to Choose Galvanized Eyelet Size
| Model | Opening Size | Typical Application | Selection Tip |
|---|---|---|---|
| No 66 Round Galvanized Eyelet | Approx. 40 mm / 1.6 in inner diameter | Tarpaulins, tents, awnings, banners, curtains, truck covers, protective covers and technical textiles | Suitable for large circular fixing points; washer and setting die compatibility should be checked. |
| Oval Galvanized Eyelet | 42 mm x 23 mm oval opening | Long-slot fastening points on tarpaulins, awnings, banners, curtains, tents and technical textiles | Oval hole preparation and oval setting die compatibility are important. |
Application Areas
- Tarpaulins, truck covers, awnings and shade systems
- Tents, camping equipment, outdoor textiles and protective covers
- Banners, vinyl signs, advertising tarpaulins, posters and hanging points
- Curtains, thick fabrics, industrial textiles and technical textile surfaces
- Large fixing points for ropes, cords, hooks, ties or fastening components
Round and Oval Galvanized Eyelets
Round galvanized eyelets can be selected for classic large fixing holes on tarpaulins, tents, awnings, banners and curtains. Oval galvanized eyelets can be selected when a longer slot is required and the fastening component needs a wider movement area in one direction.
The right choice depends on the fastening component, pull direction, material thickness, washer support, hole shape and compatible setting die. Round eyelets should be matched with round hole preparation and setting tools. Oval eyelets should be matched with oval hole preparation and oval setting tools.
Galvanized, Aluminum, Brass and Stainless Eyelets
Galvanized eyelets can be selected for large tarpaulin, awning, banner, tent and technical textile applications. Aluminum eyelets can be selected when a lightweight metal eyelet is preferred. Brass eyelets can be selected for garments, leather goods, shoes, bags and decorative textile projects where finish colour and trim appearance are important. Stainless eyelets can be selected for outdoor and technical textile projects where stainless material is required.
Colour and Finish Options
Galvanized eyelets may be available in free nickel, black nickel, gold, antique brass, gun metal and antique silver finishes depending on the product model. Free nickel and antique silver can support clean or technical designs. Black nickel and gun metal are useful for darker tarpaulins, bags and outdoor products. Gold and antique brass can be selected for more decorative applications.
Washer, Hole Cutting and Setting Die Compatibility
Galvanized eyelet installation depends on the eyelet capsule, prepared hole, washer type and compatible setting die. A prepared hole that is too small may prevent proper seating, while a hole that is too large may create a loose installation. Large-size galvanized eyelets should be matched with the correct washer, press force and setting tool.
