Double Cap Metal Rivet in Iron
A plain double cap rivet in iron, offered in 8 mm to 14 mm cap sizes across the full plated colour range. Iron keeps the piece price down on programmes that set thousands of rivets, which is why the minimum order here is 5,000 pieces per colour rather than 1,000.
The volume option: pick this when rivet cost per piece drives the decision and the cap sits under a strap.

Problems It Solves
- Rivets set with the wrong post length either spin loose or split the cap
- Iron rivets under a scratched plating rust and stain the leather around them
- Decorative studs with a shallow relief lose their shape after plating
Key Benefits

- Zinc alloy and iron versions so the cost can follow the product's price point
- Shaped caps, including heart profiles, cast deep enough to survive plating
Application Scenarios
- Strap end and handle attachment points on leather bags
- Decorative studding on belts, collars and wallets
- Reinforcement at stress points beside stitching
- Dog collar decoration
Who It Is For
- Leather workshops setting rivets by hand press
- Belt and collar makers using studs as decoration
- Bag factories reinforcing handle and strap joints

Use Guide
- Add the thickness of every layer, then choose a post about 1 mm longer
- Use a matched setting die, since a flat punch deforms the cap
- Set one test rivet on a scrap stack before running the batch
| Compared with | What changes |
|---|---|
| Screw rivet | A screw rivet can be opened for service, while a set rivet is permanent and cheaper |
| Stitching alone | Stitching spreads the load but a rivet carries a point load that would otherwise cut thread |
