It's good that I got three packs of these

It's good that I got three packs of these, you can't count one or the other. Each package had 12 grommets instead of 24. I had to check the packages so I didn't make a mistake. My bill kept coming back to 12 per pack, not 24. If you order these you have to triple the order to get what you need.

Pros
  • Industrial equipment
Cons
  • There are doubts

Good eyelets, but not for us!

This was a great collection of grommets packaged in a nice organizer box. Make sure you have the right place to try and install them (which takes some effort). Our neighbors didn't like hearing us bang as they tried to pound each other into our fabric. But if you have a workspace where you don't disturb others, that's GREAT!

Pros
  • Industrial & Scientific
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks

Incorrect #4 - too big for a standard bushing machine

These bushings are industrial and require a special machine. My 0,2,4 machine cannot use it. I tried closing them manually with a tool but they are too strong and no hammer blows seem to close them. You are of no use to me. They are much larger than my standard #4 grommets. If you are looking for industrial grade grommets then go for them.

Pros
  • bushing kits
Cons
  • old
