30.6 × 6.4 mm / 1.20 × 0.25 in Brass Oval Eyelets, Nickel, 100 Pieces EROV0030PRPromo

These 30.6 × 6.4 mm / 1.20 × 0.25 in brass oval eyelets are nickel-finish metal components designed to create a clean, narrow oval opening in leather, textile, footwear, bags, belts, garments, and accessory projects. Their elongated shape gives designers a more directional opening than a standard round eyelet, making them useful where the opening needs to guide a narrow lace, cord, tie, or decorative connection detail.

An oval eyelet does more than cover a cut hole. When it is matched to the correct material thickness, washer option, punching die, and setting die, it helps the finished opening look intentional rather than improvised. On bags, shoes, apparel, and leather accessories, a neat eyelet line can make the product feel more carefully built before the customer even begins to use it.

Important: Check the Actual Inner Opening

This product is often described as a 3 cm / 1.18 in oval eyelet because its long inner dimension is approximately 30.6 mm / 1.20 in. However, the short inner dimension is only 6.4 mm / 0.25 in.

That means this is not an eyelet for passing a 30 mm / 1.18 in wide webbing strap through. It is intended for narrow laces, thin cords, slim ties, decorative lace-through details, and similar pass-through elements that fit within the 30.6 × 6.4 mm inner opening.

Where Can These Oval Eyelets Be Used?

These eyelets can be used in footwear, leather accessories, bags, belts, apparel, shirts, blouses, workwear, denim shirts, textile decorations, costume details, and selected children’s products. They are useful where a narrow, elongated reinforced opening adds both function and a refined metal detail.

Before choosing this eyelet, measure the material that will pass through it. Consider the width, thickness, movement, pulling direction, and expected load of the cord or tie. The correct eyelet should support the actual use without forcing the material through an opening that is too narrow.

Capsule and Washer Dimensions

Use the capsule measurement when selecting the compatible punching die and setting die:

• Capsule outside dimensions: 36.6 × 12.8 mm / 1.44 × 0.50 in
• Capsule inner opening: 30.6 × 6.4 mm / 1.20 × 0.25 in
• Capsule barrel height: 4 mm / 0.16 in
• Compatible metal washer outside dimensions: 37.6 × 12.8 mm / 1.48 × 0.50 in
• Compatible metal washer inner opening: 32 × 7.7 mm / 1.26 × 0.30 in
• Compatible metal washer height: 1.3 mm / 0.05 in

Choose the washer and installation setup based on the material type, thickness, backing construction, and intended use. Plastic bottom washers are not included with this product. Confirm the compatible bottom-washer system before placing the order when your application requires one.

Why Choose an Oval Eyelet Instead of a Round Eyelet?

A round eyelet creates an equal opening in all directions. An oval eyelet creates a longer, more directional opening. This can be useful for narrow lace passages, slim strap details, decorative textile cuts, and design lines where a round eyelet would look too compact or too wide.

The oval silhouette can also create a more tailored visual effect on apparel and accessories. In a bag, shoe, or garment detail, the eyelet becomes part of the design language rather than only a functional hardware component.

Nickel Finish and Brass Material

This model is made from brass and supplied in a nickel finish. Nickel-tone hardware can coordinate well with black, gray, navy, denim, white, blue, charcoal, and cool-toned collections.

For a more coordinated final product, compare the eyelet tone with zipper teeth, rivets, hooks, buckles, snaps, metal labels, and other visible hardware. Keeping metal components within a similar finish family helps a bag, garment, or accessory look more intentional and professionally developed.

Prepare the Hole Before Setting the Eyelet

For clean installation, first use the compatible 30 mm / 1.18 in oval eyelet punching die KLPK0030OVLDELNO6. This tool is used only to prepare the oval hole. It is not a setting die.

A hole that is too small can prevent the capsule from sitting correctly. A hole that is too large can create movement, poor seating, or an uneven edge. Testing the punching result on the actual leather, textile, tarpaulin, or layered material before production helps reduce waste and improves consistency.

Use a Separate Setting Die for Final Installation

After preparing the hole, use the matching 3 cm / 1.18 in oval eyelet setting die KLPK0030OVLNO6 to install the eyelet. The setting die supports the capsule and the selected washer system during pressing so the eyelet can sit more evenly on the material.

When the die and thread connection are compatible, installation can be completed using hand striking tools, hand presses, impact presses, electric machinery, or pneumatic machinery. For sample rooms and low-to-medium production, the M0099 hand press can be used with the correct punching and setting dies.

Checks Before Regular Production

• Confirm that the cord, lace, or narrow tie fits within the 30.6 × 6.4 mm / 1.20 × 0.25 in inner opening.
• Check the total material thickness, including backing, lining, reinforcement, and seam layers.
• Use the matching punching die and setting die as separate tools.
• Confirm the washer option required for the intended application.
• Make a test installation on the actual material stack.
• Inspect the finished eyelet for rotation, sharp edges, uneven compression, and unwanted material damage.

When Should You Choose a Different Oval Eyelet?

For a smaller elongated opening, compare a 26.6 × 6.4 mm / 1.05 × 0.25 in oval eyelet. For higher-volume production in the same size group, review the 500-piece brass oval eyelet option.
