Zamak Zinc Alloy Eyelets
Zamak zinc alloy eyelets are decorative metal hole-reinforcement components used in bags, shoes, leather goods, belts, outerwear, accessories and fashion textiles. Their shaped metal structure creates a more visible and design-focused detail compared with standard round eyelets.
The E-Buttons zamak zinc alloy eyelets category is designed for bag makers, footwear producers, leather workshops, accessory brands, garment manufacturers and textile accessory buyers. Depending on the project, buyers can compare oval edge zinc alloy eyelets, decorative patterned eyelets, narrow oval frame eyelets and rectangular metal eyelets.
What Are Zamak Zinc Alloy Eyelets?
A zamak zinc alloy eyelet is installed around a prepared hole in fabric, leather, synthetic leather, canvas, bag material or fashion textile surface. Depending on the model, it may include an upper part and a lower part. This structure helps support the opening and creates a finished decorative metal trim appearance.
Inner opening determines the usable passage size. Outer size affects visible metal coverage. Part structure determines how the eyelet is assembled. Hole shape and setting die compatibility affect how cleanly the product sits on the surface after installation.

Zamak Eyelets and Other Eyelet Types
Zamak eyelets can be selected when a decorative, shaped and more visible metal detail is required. Brass eyelet capsules can be selected for classic metal eyelet applications with multiple finish and size options. Oval eyelet capsules can be selected when an elongated opening is required. Stainless, aluminum and galvanized eyelets can be evaluated for outdoor and technical textile applications.
Colour and Finish Options
Zamak zinc alloy eyelets may be available in nickel, black nickel, gold, antique brass, gun metal, copper and other finish options depending on the product model. Gold and antique brass can create a classic look on leather goods and bags. Nickel can support a clean metal appearance. Black nickel and gun metal are useful for darker products and contemporary designs.
Hole Cutting and Setting Die Compatibility
Zamak eyelet installation depends on the prepared hole, eyelet shape, part structure and compatible setting die. Oval, narrow oval and rectangular forms should be matched with the correct hole shape. A prepared opening that is too small may prevent proper seating, while an opening that is too large may create a loose installation.
For compatible molds and dies, check the grommet dies and setting tools category. For hole preparation, grommet punching dies can be evaluated. For a broader product comparison, visit the eyelets and grommets category.
