    Fabric Grommets

    Add a protective metal ring to a hole so rope and cable don’t tear your tarp, cover, or curtain. To install, strike a cutting punch with a mallet to create the hole, then set the grommet using either an installation punch or a press. All of these grommets can be used outdoors. Installation tools are sold separately.

    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.
