Dritz Double Cap Rivet W/ Tool - Set Of 120 Rivets & 3 Tools

The Dritz Double-Cap Rivets and Tool Set is a practical hardware kit designed for fastening multiple layers of material and adding a neat, decorative finish to sewing, leathercraft, bag-making, and other creative projects. The set includes 120 double-cap rivet sets and three application tools, providing the essential components for preparing holes and securing rivets by hand.

Double-cap rivets consist of two complementary metal cap components that connect through layers of material. Once installed correctly, the caps provide a finished appearance on both sides of the project. This makes them particularly useful for items where the front and back surfaces are visible.

120 Double-Cap Rivet Sets

The kit includes 120 rivet sets for use across multiple projects. Each rivet set consists of the components needed to fasten compatible layers of material together. The double-cap design helps provide a clean, finished appearance on both sides.

These rivets can be used for functional fastening and decorative detailing on suitable fabric, leather, vinyl, canvas, belting, and other compatible materials.

Three-Piece Application Tool Set

The included hand tools support the main stages of rivet installation:

• Hole punch: Creates an opening for the rivet post to pass through the material.

• Anvil: Supports the rivet during installation and helps seat the cap.

• Setter: Applies pressure through controlled hammering to secure the rivet components together.

Together, these tools provide a manual method for installing the compatible rivets without requiring a sewing machine or powered installation equipment.

Double-Cap Construction

The double-cap design provides a finished appearance on both sides of the material, making the rivets suitable for accessories and projects that are viewed from multiple angles. They can also serve as decorative accents on handmade items.

Suitable Applications

The Dritz Double-Cap Rivets and Tool Set is suitable for a variety of craft and sewing projects, including:

• Bag and purse construction.

• Leathercraft and compatible leather accessories.

• Garment details and clothing accessories.

• Canvas and belting projects.

• Fabric accessories and handmade items.

• Decorative accents on compatible materials.

• Attaching multiple layers where stitching is inconvenient.

• DIY craft and textile projects.

Rivet Size and Material Compatibility

The matching Dritz 120-set rivet kit is listed with an 8 mm cap diameter and a 6 mm post length. The post length determines the material thickness the rivet can accommodate. For a proper fit, the combined material thickness must allow sufficient post to remain exposed for attaching the second cap.

Before installation, test a rivet on a scrap piece of the intended material. The appropriate fit depends on the thickness and composition of the materials being joined. Do not use the rivets for structural or load-bearing applications unless the manufacturer specifically rates them for that purpose.

How to Use

1. Mark the intended rivet position on the material.

2. Place the material on a firm, protected work surface.

3. Use the included hole punch and a suitable mallet to create an opening for the rivet post. For difficult materials, an appropriate awl may be needed.

4. Insert the rivet post through the prepared hole.

5. Place the matching cap over the exposed post.

6. Position the assembled rivet on the anvil.

7. Place the setter over the cap and gently hammer while keeping the tool straight and stable.

8. Inspect the finished rivet to confirm that both caps are securely joined and the surrounding material is not damaged.

Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and use suitable eye protection and a stable work surface when punching holes or hammering metal components.
