Snaps

Recommended Posts

Every leather bracelet I have ever bought, the snap has eventually turned green. Yes, I can clean it, but it's a hassle. I want to make my own but do not want the snap turning green! The snaps I've seen are all "silver" colored, but must be some type of zinc plated copper or something to turn green, as I understand metal. Or brass with a high copper content. So my question is, what metal snaps can I get that I won't have this problem? Can I get stainless steel snaps? And can anyone recommend a supplier?

Thanks!

Thanks Tree. That helped. The post part is what I need to be stainless. Ats the part that ends up touching the skin if I read the instructions for joining them correctly.

If you only need a few, see your local marine shop, they should have them also.
