KAM Snaps
Our KAM snaps are intended to be used with our pliers for plastic snaps or KAM press dies. We cannot guarantee compatibility if you are using our snaps with other non-KAM products.
Snap Sizes
The size of a snap corresponds to its diameter. The bigger the size, the bigger the snap and the firmer the grip.
- Size 20 is most commonly used for general applications, including baby diapers and clothing.
- Size 24 is for heavy duty applications, such as tote bags, tarps, coats, and upholstery.
- Size 14 or 16, because of their shorter prongs, are appropriate for thinner material such as grosgrain ribbon and doll clothing. Note that sizes 14 and 16 have identical studs and sockets--only the caps are different.
- Use long prong caps only for thicker or bulky material. Refer to chart below for prong lengths.
Different size snaps require different size dies, with the exception of sizes 14 and 16 sockets and studs, which are identical. If you are unsure which size you need, you may also purchase snap samples here.

Snap Finishes
Some colors are available in both matte and glossy caps. Glossy caps are shinier and smoother than matte caps. Identical sockets and studs are used regardless of the cap finish.

Note:
Snap Count
Snaps are packaged by weight, so count may not be exact. Also, if you order multiples of a color, we may combine the sets. For example, if you purchase two bags of 100-count studs, we may send you one bag of 200 studs.
Snap Colors
Due to imperfect and natural variations in lighting as well as individual settings of your computer screen, snap colors shown on our website may not be a true reflection of their actual color. If you are unsure of a color, please feel free to inquire. Or you can purchase a color card or snap sample here. Snaps are not labeled by color when shipped.
