TF 217 Black Nylon Square Twist-Lock Fastener Set

The TF 217 Black Nylon Square Twist-Lock Fastener Set from Fasnap Corp. is a versatile, all-in-one fastening solution ideal for biminis, automotive soft tops, tents, covers, and other applications.

Made from 66 nylon acetyl resin, this set is durable and resists the corrosion and rot that often affect metal fasteners. Not recommended for strength-critical applications.

Installation Guide:

• Stud & backplate: First, mark and cut two (2) prong holes in rear-facing canvas using the 147-2 1/8" Snap Fastener Hole Punch or similar tool. Next, insert the stud through the holes, flip the canvas over, and attach the backplate onto the prongs, pressing firmly until you hear an audible click.
• Eyelet and washer: Start by placing the eyelet in the desired position and tracing the inside of the hole. Then, use a 7/16" (#3) hole cutter to make two (2) side-by-side holes within—or slightly outside—the traced lines. For greater precision, a razor blade or hot knife can be used instead. Next, insert the eyelet from the top, flip the canvas over, and attach the washer with the teeth facing down, pressing firmly until you hear an audible click and the assembly is securely locked in place.

Sold per set (4 pieces) — including the stud (male part) with its retaining backplate, and the eyelet (female part) with its corresponding washer.
