3 cm / 1.18 in Top Button Plastic Buckle for Secure Strap Systems
This top button plastic bandolier buckle is used in strap layouts that need a secure open-and-close fastening point. It can be used on tactical belts, backpacks, hiking gear, camping accessories, outdoor products, work bags, tarpaulins, aprons, workwear and technical textile applications.
The product is listed in the 3 cm / 1.18 in class. The verified webbing use is 31.7 mm, the gap is 3.4 mm, the locked outside length is 60.6 mm / 2.39 in, and the outside width is 35.6 mm / 1.40 in. Strap width, strap thickness, stiffness and folding should be checked before bulk production.
How It Works in a Strap Layout
This product belongs to the Bag Buckles, Rings and Hooks family. It should be compared with Side Release Buckles and Slide Adjusters when buyers select buckle options by strap width, lock style, material and final application.
This buckle creates the opening and closing point. It does not adjust strap length by itself. If strap length adjustment is required, a matching ladder buckle or strap adjuster should be used. If the strap system needs a fixed loop, a D ring, O ring or frame buckle should be selected according to the same strap class.
Why This Buckle Is Useful
- Fits 3 cm / 1.18 in strap systems with 31.7 mm verified webbing use.
- Top button lock provides controlled opening and closing.
- Plastic construction keeps the final strap system lightweight.
- Useful for tactical belts, backpacks, outdoor gear, tarpaulins and technical textile products.
- Locked outside length is 60.6 mm / 2.39 in.
- Outside width is 35.6 mm / 1.40 in.
- Available in black with custom color production options.
Choosing Similar Buckles
For a standard 3 cm / 1.18 in side-release option, a regular plastic bandolier buckle can be compared. For wider strap systems, 4 cm / 1.57 in plastic buckles and 5 cm / 1.97 in top-lock plastic buckles can be selected. For narrower strap layouts, 2.5 cm / 1 in and 2 cm / 0.79 in plastic buckles should be considered according to actual webbing width.
If the design also needs strap adjustment, add a ladder buckle or strap adjuster. If a fixed connection point is needed, choose a D ring, O ring or frame buckle that matches the webbing and product use.
