The 16 ligne
SNAPET® is available with brass components which can
be plated in a variety of finishes. Additionally, the prong ring or
capped prong ring can be painted in a variety of stock colors, or
can be painted to match. The brass system's capped prong ring is
available in either a 16, 20 or 24 ligne. For historical reasons,
the nominal 16 ligne capped prong ring has an actual 18 ligne
diameter. The capped prong ring can be logo enhanced, for that
special look. Inserted pearl rings are available in the 16 or 18
ligne size. Nylon and rubber capped prong rings are available in 18
ligne or larger sizes, and may be round or a special shape. See Rubber Products (Designer
Snaps) for further information.
The socket can be attached with any of the prong ring based components. The stud may be attached with either a prong ring or a post, as chosen according to the fabric and the garment construction. However, in the case of a reversible garment, attaching both socket and stud with a prong ring based component will allow you to achieve that finished look on both sides. The underparts (studs and sockets) are shown here with nickel plating, the most frequently used finish. If you are interested in our other platings, please contact our sales team. There are a variety of ring attachment options not shown on this page. For more details, see the link to 16 Ligne System Cap Options. The medical stud is not compatible with YKK Snap Fasteners America's 16 ligne socket. Its special design makes it compatible with the socket used on EKG probe leads. This type of socket is not available through YKK Snap Fasteners America. |
