Understanding the 6 mm / 0.236 in Size
The 6 mm / 0.236 in value describes the nominal passage group. The measured production inner diameter is 5.85 mm / 0.230 in, while the measured outer diameter is 11.6 mm / 0.457 in.
Check the actual lace, cord or drawstring diameter before production. Commercial eyelet size names should not replace the verified dimensions.
Plastic Washer or Metal Washer?
A plastic washer may be selected when a lighter and softer rear support is preferred for compatible garments, textiles, tags or folders.
A metal washer may be selected for footwear, bags and leather goods requiring a conventional metal rear support.
Plastic and metal washers are separate product options and must not be shown as included together.
Typical Applications
- Shoe and boot lace openings
- Hoodie, jacket and tracksuit drawstrings
- Bags, wallets and leather accessories
- Garments and textile products
- Tags, folders, sample cards and cardboard
- Craft and repair projects
Setting Die and Hole Preparation
Use a standard setting die intended for eyelets in the approximately 6 mm / 0.236 in inner-opening group.
A separate punching die may be used to prepare the hole. The punching die prepares the material only; a compatible setting die is still required to form the barrel over the washer.
Test Before Production
Material thickness, prepared hole, washer type, setting-die profile and press force affect the final result. Test the complete combination on the actual material.
Package and Options
The base package contains 250 eyelet capsules. Higher quantities, washer type and finish are selected through the product options.
The setting die, punching die and press are not included.

Ürünlerimi Türkiye'deki sanal mağaza platformlarında satıyorum. Küçük işletme sabiyim ve bu pandemi döneminde aksesuar temininde zorluklar yaşıyordum. Birçok firmayı aradım hep bana yüklü miktarlar satmaya kalkıştılar. Az adet almak istediğimde hep olumsuz cevaplar ile karşılaştım.
Tesadüfen google da arama yaparken sitenizi ziyaret ettim ve çok şaşırdım, çünkü böyle bir sitenin Türkiye de var olduğunu hiç zan etmiyordum. Satışlarda sunulan adetler makul aynı zamanda hızlı bir teslimat hizmet ile karşılaştım. İş yerim İzmir de ve 3 iş günü içinde siparişim elimde oldu ve bende ürünlerimi hazırlayıp bayram arifesinde satışa sunabildim.
Buradan e-dugme.com ekibine içtenlikle teşekkürlerimi iletmek istiyorum.
Aynı zamanda ürün çeşitliğini de artmasını diliyorum..
