12.5 mm / 0.49 in Flat Cap 54 System Metal Snap Button
This 12.5 mm / 0.49 in flat cap metal snap button is a 54 system fastening component designed to connect two fabric edges and allow practical opening and closing. The flat cap surface creates a cleaner and more minimal look compared with domed snap button styles.
It is suitable for shirts, bodysuits, denim shirts, babywear, kidswear, light garments, bags, wallets and textile accessories. The 12.5 mm / 0.49 in size offers a balanced closure detail for products that need a clear but not oversized snap button.
The snap structure consists of four parts: flat cap, socket, stud and post. The cap is made from zamak material. This flat cap model can be preferred as an alternative to brass flat cap snaps when a decorative and strong metal appearance is needed.
Setting Die and Application Information
