Name And Source For Non-Standard Hardware Fitting?

Recommended Posts

Hi all - posted this request on another leather forum without luck so thought I'd try here. I'd like to attach straps to a satchel using what I'll call for now an 'H-fitting' instead of, say, a D-ring + trigger hook (see accompanying 3D sketch of imagined fitting). The idea would be to attach leather to around each of the parallel ends of the fitting, much like one would attach a strap to a buckle.

Does anyone know if there is a standard name for fittings like this, if they are even mass manufactured? I've looked pretty hard, but can't seem to find any similar things sold anywhere.

Any help would be appreciated!

Try looking on abbey England site under saddlery fittings there is a stirrup tee piece don't know if this is close enough to what you are looking for.

Great spot - thanks very much! Now all I need to do is figure out how big it is and figure out a way to get AbbeyEngland to sell it to me (it seems like they don't sell to private people)!
