Ohio Travel Bag Screw In Grommets

[cem]

Just wondering has anyone used Ohio Travel Bags screw in Grommets http://www.ohiotravelbag.com/FlipBook/hardware%20catalog%20p210/index.html (page 11 of catalogue if link doesn't work). I don't use alot of eyelets and grommets so don't want to invest in a press just yet and I hate doing them with the mallet anvils. So I was hoping someone might of used the screw ins and can tell me what they are like, it's going on a 5.5oz wallet back to attach a wallet chain.

Thankyou for any help

Cheers,

Clair

I have not used them but have been seriously eyeing them. If the thickness of the eyelet works for your use and I think I would put a dablet of some sort of glue in there as well (super?).

I used some on a woodworking project a few years back and have used them when I was installing car stereo systems years ago. They are great to use, very easy.

You might need to get a bigger punch depending on what size you're looking at (they work better when the holes are precise) and a tip: put a small bit of locktite on them when assembling to keep them from untwisting as the chain works back and forth often...will help keep them from unscrewing over time.

Thankyou Donna & Spinner I ended up going with the mallets one though that is if my order ever gets posted from another supplier. I had quite a few things to order and was able to get everything at one place but I will definately be looking at them again for another project.
