Pliers KWB 929716 Ösenzange — single piece, reinforced eyelet pliers

KWB Ösenzange model 929716 is a single-piece, reinforced eyelet pliers designed for manual installation of metal eyelets and grommets in fabrics, leather, canvas and comparable materials. Delivered as a single tool, the pliers allow precise positioning and firm crimping of eyelets without the need for power tools. The reinforced construction supports repeated use in craft, repair and upholstery tasks and helps maintain consistent results when setting small to medium-sized eyelets.

Advantages

The one-piece design reduces play between components and improves alignment during installation, while the reinforced jaws increase durability under repeated use. The pliers provide controlled manual force for accurate placement and consistent crimping of eyelets. Their compact form factor supports work in constrained spaces and makes the tool easy to handle and store.

Suitable for

• Hand-sewing and craft projects involving fabric, leather or canvas
• Repairing tarpaulins, awnings and tents
• Upholstery and garment finishing where reinforced holes are needed
• Small-scale workshop and DIY eyelet installation

Key specifications

• Construction: single-piece pliers with reinforced jaw
• Function: manual setting of metal eyelets and grommets
• Materials suitable: textiles, leather, canvas and similar flexible materials
• Use case: manual operation without power source
• Form factor: compact hand tool for on-site and workshop use

How to use

Mark the desired hole position on the material and prepare the corresponding hole if required. Insert the eyelet through the material and position the tool so the eyelet sits correctly in the jaws. Squeeze the handles firmly and evenly until the eyelet is crimped and secured. Inspect the result and, if necessary, repeat the operation on additional pieces. The pliers are intended for manual use; applying steady, even pressure yields the most consistent results.

Usage recommendations

Use an appropriately sized hole and matching eyelet dimensions for the material thickness to avoid deformation. For thicker or heavily layered materials, test on a scrap piece before final installation. Store the pliers dry and clean to prevent corrosion and check the jaw alignment periodically to ensure consistent setting quality.
