The snap top (or cap) is the outer component of the snap system. It can be metal or dyed nylon, plain or fancy. The "SX" top includes a 2-prong fastener. During the attachment process, the prongs are driven through the fabric and the socket. Then the legs of the fastener are curled inside the socket to form a secure attachment. This works much like a very heavy duty staple.

The stud is attached with a 2-prong fastener in the same manner. See the illustration below.
