12.5 mm (0.49 in) Ecru Plastic-Cap Snap Buttons, 100 Sets ERC00125PLEcru
Built for garment makers who care about small finishing details, these ecru plastic-cap snap buttons provide a warm off-white visible face on a four-piece metal-and-plastic closure. Each cap measures 12.5 mm (0.49 in) and works with the matching 54 System parts supplied in the set. Consider them for bodysuits, shirts, lightweight sleepwear and textile accessories where the closure should coordinate with natural fabric colours. This is not an all-plastic push-button design, nor is it a 15 mm snap.
Why ecru rather than bright white?
Against cream jersey, ivory cotton and beige cotton blends, an ecru cap can look more intentional than a brilliant white or exposed silver finish. The understated colour suits capsule collections and small-batch sewing where the fabric, not the hardware, should lead the design. If the same garment calls for another cap shade, browse plastic snap buttons. To compare different fastening mechanisms, start with the broader snap fastener range.

Install the four-part set correctly
A finished closure joins two sides of a garment. The plastic cap and its mating components must be positioned correctly through the fabric; correct post length and tool alignment matter. Protect the visible plastic surface by using a die shaped for the cap and a matching 54 System lower assembly. A die for an unrelated 12.5 mm snap may damage the surface or fail to close the mating parts securely. Check the press connection and test on a representative stack of fabric before a production run.
For matching installation equipment, review the 12.5 mm / 0.49 in plastic-cap 54 System snap setting die sold separately. Verify your press thread and test cap support and fastening on the finished fabric layers before making a production batch.
Box contents and ordering notes
Your 100-set pack contains 100 ecru plastic caps, 100 sockets, 100 studs and 100 posts, or 400 individual parts. You do not need to purchase loose snap components to complete these 100 assemblies; you do need separately purchased setting tools or press equipment. Colour shown on screen may differ from the finished part, so order a sample if an exact shade match is essential. The nominal 12.5 mm (0.49 in) dimension refers to the cap, not the entire assembled thickness.
