Basic Question About Types Of Snaps...

Recommended Posts

I'm hesitant to start a new topic with such a basic beginner question but I can't seem to find the info anywhere.

I see all these different snaps for sale but I can't find info on sizing or proper application. Line 24, for example. Is that a size of snap, a specific type, or perhaps both?

Specifically, I'll be making some tool pouches (pliers, Leatherman, etc.) and need to choose a proper snap and setter for those applications.

If anyone can point me to a resource that explains the wide world of snaps I'd appreciate it :)

There is a pretty good explanation here. Durable Dot are Ligne 24

Baby Durable Dot are Ligne 20

Segma are Ligne 16

Glove Snaps are Ligne 10 I think

Stainless Steel Durable Dot snaps are used in the marine canvas business, they have a very hard action (they are hard to snap and unsnap, really hard).
