Description
Double Cap Rivets 9mm x 12mm Silver
These Silver Double Cap Rivets feature a 9mm cap diameter and 12mm post length and are ideal for securing, reinforcing or decorating bag making projects.
Understanding Rivet Size
- 9mm – visible cap diameter
- 12mm – post length
The cap diameter determines the setting die size; the post length needs to suit the total material thickness. Use a 9mm Double Cap Rivet Die Set with the KAM DK93 Hand Press.
Choosing the Right Post Length
The post needs enough length to pass through all project layers and connect with the second cap. Too short may not connect; excessive length can be harder to set neatly. Test on an offcut first.
Perfect for Bag Making Projects

Preparing the Rivet Hole
For most bag making materials, a 2mm hole is the perfect size to start with. Size the hole to the rivet post rather than the 9mm cap and test on an offcut first.
How to Set Double Cap Rivets
Helpful Tip from Chris
Reinforce straps, handles and hardware attachment points so the rivet is supported by the structure of the project. Test the same material layers, hole size and post length before setting your finished project.
