It's a tough world. You need tough snaps. ("SK" snaps)

(Image of 'YKK Snap Fasteners America's Snap) Durable and sturdy, "SK" snap fasteners are reliably attached to a wide range of applications. The "SK" snap design uses the attaching technology of a post assembled ring spring snap system. The "SK" is compatible with a wide range of applications varying from apparel to military equipment to automobiles. There are two basic sizes of the "SK" system. The smaller size is represented by the SK-30. The larger size is represented by the SK-70 or the SK-50 and the "Lift the Spot" snap. The SK-50 and the "Lift the Spot" snap differ from the SK-70 series in that a larger diameter post is used to assemble the components. The SK-50 snap fasteners have special components that expand their application beyond standard textile fabrics and soft material applications to applications on hard substrates such as metal, fiberglass, or other similar materials.

The YKK Snap Fasteners America Advantage

The "SK" system is designed for applications requiring a medium or heavy duty snap fastener. Available with 20 or 24 ligne snap tops, the base "SK" series snaps is made from base materials of steel or brass. Depending on aesthetic requirements or function demands, several metallic and oxidized finishes are available. For multiple stacking of components on top of each other, "gypsy studs" are available. For applications on hard surfaces, "screw studs" are an option. If your fastener needs call for a one-way snap action, YKK Snap Fasteners America offers a specially designed system that resists unsnap unless tension is applied from a specific direction (the 'Lift the Spot' snap).
