9.5 mm / 0.37 in Cap Rivet Setting Die KLP00R95

What Is a 9.5 mm Cap Rivet Setting Die Used For?

This Cap Rivet Setting Die is designed for controlled installation of compatible 9.5 mm / 0.37 in cap rivets. The upper and lower die surfaces help position the rivet during pressing, supporting a cleaner and more centred finish on leather goods, bags, textile accessories and workshop-made products.

This is a Rivet Setting Die. It does not manufacture rivets, punch holes or replace the need to select the correct rivet geometry for the actual material stack.

Use Only with Compatible 9.5 mm Cap Rivets

The 9.5 mm / 0.37 in figure identifies the cap-size group and working setting diameter. It does not automatically confirm compatibility with every rivet that has a similar visible cap diameter.

Before use, compare the real cap profile, reverse-side construction, post or nail geometry and closing form with the die surface. A nail rivet, single cap rivet and double cap rivet can use different setting geometry even when their cap diameters appear similar.

Not a Universal Rivet Die

This product should be described as a Cap Rivet Setting Die, not as an automatic replacement for all nail-rivet, single-cap-rivet or double-cap-rivet dies.

• Nail rivets: require confirmation of cap and nail geometry.
• Single cap rivets: can have a different reverse-side setting form.
• Double cap rivets: require support for two visible cap surfaces.

Always test the real rivet and the actual material before repeat production.

Does This Tool Punch a Hole?

No. This is a Rivet Setting Die, not a Punching Die. Prepare the required hole separately according to the actual rivet post, nail or connection section.

Do not select the hole size from the 9.5 mm cap diameter. The correct hole depends on the actual fastening section and the material being assembled.

Upper and Lower Die Set

The package contains one upper setting die and one lower setting die. Both parts work together to support the visible cap and the reverse component during controlled pressing.

Correct alignment helps reduce uneven closure, off-centre setting and cap deformation. The result should always be checked on a sample before production.

Typical Applications

• Leather bags and bag-handle reinforcement points
• Belts, straps, webbing and canvas products
• Wallets, card holders, cases and organisers
• Textile accessories and visible fastening details
• Sample making, repair work and small-batch workshops

Hand Press and Table Press Compatibility

Use this die with a compatible hand press or table press after confirming the physical die holder, thread type and press alignment.

The product options are labelled M6 and 1/4 in. Treat these as die-connection standards that need physical verification. Metric and inch thread options are not automatically interchangeable.

Correct Application Sequence

1. Select a cap rivet whose actual geometry matches the setting die.
2. Check the material stack thickness and rivet post or nail length.
3. Prepare the appropriate hole for the actual fastening section.
4. Place the rivet components into the upper and lower die surfaces in the correct orientation.
5. Align the material layers.
6. Apply controlled, centred pressure.
7. Check cap alignment, closure strength, surface condition and movement.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size rivet is this die for?

It is designed for compatible cap rivets in the 9.5 mm / 0.37 in cap-size group.

Can every 9.5 mm rivet use this die?

No. The real cap profile, reverse-side structure and fastening geometry must match the die.

Can it be used for nail rivets?

Only after the actual nail-rivet geometry has been physically confirmed against the die surface.

Can it be used for double cap rivets?

Not automatically. Double cap rivets may require a dedicated Double Cap Rivet Setting Die.

Does this die punch holes?

No. Hole preparation is a separate operation performed with a Punching Die or suitable punch.

Can it be used with a hand press?

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

Are rivets included?

No. The package contains the upper and lower setting dies only.
