TrueGoon Report post Posted 11 hours ago Can anyone identify what these two pieces of hardware are called? One is a pin that uses a lock to secure a collar/belt/strap. The other is a plate with two spikes and embeds into the leather. I am brand new to leatherwork. The pictures come from reddit user u/warm_vanilla_sugar.

TomE Report post Posted 5 hours ago The plate with spikes is a loop staple. Weaver sells them https://www.weaverleathersupply.com/products/15s4-loop-staples and Beiler's Manufacturing has smaller quantities. You can also sew the loop. Sewing and blocking a loop is a higher level of finish in my opinion. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fredk Report post Posted 3 hours ago The other is the padlock post from some thing like a 'Padlock stud + plate - to secure bag flaps etc.' Le Prevo sells them; 3rd up from the bottom on this page https://www.leprevo.co.uk/otherfittings.htm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
