Fabric Grommet Kits

Kits include grommets of a single size and all the tools you need to install them. The grommets add a protective metal ring to a hole so rope and cable don’t tear your tarp, cover, or curtain. Strike the cutting punch with a mallet to create a hole, then set the grommet using the installation punch and die set.

Standard Washer

Brass—Add a bright finish to your fabric.

Grommet Trade Size—Make sure your grommet, hole, and installation tools have the same trade size.
