Different Materials of Metal Eyelets: Iron vs Brass vs Aluminum vs Stainless Steel

Metal eyelets are widely used in daily production and life, but do you know how to choose the right one? There are four common types of metal eyelets based on materials: iron eyelet, brass eyelet, aluminum eyelet, and stainless steel eyelet. Each has its own advantages, disadvantages, and suitable scenarios. Today, Hangzhou Yuming, a professional garment accessories manufacturer, will help you clarify the differences and choose the most suitable metal eyelet.

Key Differences Between Metal Eyelets of Different Materials

  • Iron Eyelet: It is the most cost-effective option with low price and easy curling and forming, which can meet basic use needs. The only disadvantage is that it is prone to rust after long-term use, so it is more suitable for temporary use or indoor scenarios that are not in contact with moisture.

  • Brass Eyelet: As the most widely used metal eyelet, it has the advantage of rust resistance. It also comes in a variety of colors with bright and positive luster, which can better match different products. The only drawback is that its price is relatively higher than iron and aluminum eyelets, but its durability and aesthetics make it worth the cost.

  • Aluminum Eyelet: It combines low price and rust resistance, which is a cost-effective choice for many users. However, due to its soft material, it is not tensile and easy to deform under external force. In addition, its color options are relatively few, so it is suitable for scenarios that do not require high tensile strength.

  • Stainless Steel Eyelet: It has the advantages of rust resistance and low price, similar to aluminum eyelets but more durable. Its main disadvantage is that it is not easy to curl and form, which requires professional processing equipment. At the same time, it has few color options, so it is more suitable for industrial scenarios that focus on durability.

Basic Information of Metal Eyelets

In addition to material differences, metal eyelets also have diverse choices in shape, color process, and export standards, which can be customized according to your specific needs:

  • Material: Iron, brass, aluminum, stainless steel (the four main types mentioned above).

  • Shape: Round (the most common), square, oval, mushroom, mesh, U-shaped, pentagonal, and other special shapes can be customized.

  • Color Process: Spraying, plastic spraying, electroplating, which can meet different color requirements of products.

  • Export Indicators: Environmental protection, needle inspection are the key export requirements. Please inform us of your specific export standards in advance, and we can customize products that meet your needs.
