Product review
Complete kit: The package contains the handheld snap installation tool plus 40 sets (160 pieces) of 15mm black button snaps intended for boat covers, apparel and heavy fabric projects.
Ergonomic, strength-focused build: The press employs a dual-lever mechanism that multiplies force so a light squeeze completes each setting. A soft, cushioned grip reduces hand fatigue during repeated use while the metal body stands up to workshop tasks.
Punch-and-set capability: Swap in the punching die to make precise holes, then change to the snap-setting die to fasten hardware. This combined function avoids ragged openings and yields consistent, centered snap placements.
Magnetic die change: Dies attach via magnetic suction for rapid swaps without fumbling small parts. Strong attraction keeps molds secure through installation so you can work quickly and accurately.
Straightforward setup: The tool arrives ready to use with simplified assembly and clear instructions. New users can follow the steps to install snaps without complicated adjustments; practice quickly yields neat results.
Material limit: The snaps are meant for substrates up to 3 mm (0.118 inch) thick. Using them on thicker materials can prevent the fasteners from locking properly.

Great for tent and clothing repairs
Fixed a broken zipper on a net tent by installing snaps. It’s solid and makes repairs like jackets and jeans simple once you learn the steps.

Made for heavy fabrics
These snaps are heavy-duty and suit leather or canvas. I repaired my partner’s jacket in minutes; just ensure the fabric can withstand the strong fasteners.

Clear instructions, strong tool
I added snaps to thick shoe straps that had loose Velcro. It was a bit tough because of the material thickness, but the instructions were clear and the tool didn’t fail.
