Saddle rivets, bag feet and bag studs 10 × 10 mm for leather and bags
These metal fittings in 10 × 10 mm can be used as saddle rivets, bag feet or bag studs. You can use them to join or decorate bags, belts, rucksacks and other leather work securely. They are also used for repairs and upcycling projects.
Choose your colour from the options. With the uniform size of 10 × 10 mm, you can set several fittings evenly on the same project.
Which function to use when
As a saddle rivet, you join two layers of leather or webbing permanently, for example on a bag handle or a belt. As a bag foot, the fitting protects the base of the bag, because the bag does not lie flat on the surface when you put it down. As a bag stud, you use it as a decorative element or a fastening point.
Fitting the rivets
Fitting is straightforward with the right tool. Work on a firm surface and try setting a rivet on an offcut of leather first.
- Mark the position on the workpiece
- Punch a hole to match the shank of the rivet
- Insert the fitting and close it firmly with the right tool
- Check that it sits properly before you set further fittings
