Oval PVC eyelet with rounded shoulders and 4 x 45 mm elongated hole. Typically used for hole reinforcements in banners, tarpaulins, building wraps etc. HF Welded PVC eyelets will fuse together with the foil and result in a joint that is significantly stronger and can withstand significantly higher pull forces than metal eyelet. This is especially true when working in mesh materials. PVC eyelets will not tear out and will not rust and stain the material. They can be colour matched to the fabric and will make recycling of PVC and vinyl banners much easier.

A side-by-side pull test: a Carmo HF-welded plastic eyelet against a standard metal grommet in PVC-coated fabric, pulled until the fabric tears. The welded eyelet fuses with the foil across the whole flange instead of being punched through it: in Carmo's workshop pull test on PVC-coated nylon (600 g/m²), a single welded eyelet held about three times the force of a metal grommet, and a double-welded eyelet about four times. In-house test with an uncalibrated newtonmeter: indicative, not a certified standard test; ask Carmo for a test on your own material. The reason to weld eyelets, not set metal ones.

Carmo workshop pull test: an HF-welded plastic eyelet against a metal grommet, in PVC-coated fabric. The metal grommet is punched through the fabric; it grips only the rim it clamps. Under load, the grommet tears out of the fabric. The welded eyelet is fused to the coating across its whole flange. The weld spreads the pull into the fabric; it holds far more force before tearing. Carmo in-house test, uncalibrated newtonmeter: indicative. Ask for a test on your material.
Welding times of 1.5 seconds for single eyelets and 2-3 seconds for double eyelets are typical - depending on the HF generator used and the thickness and layers of sheets to weld.
These components are manufactured in Denmark by Injection Molding, securing high quality, low unit prices, focus on sustainability and respect for the environmental impact of production.
Most Carmo PVC components can be delivered in Carmo's special PVC/PUR mixture for HF welding to PUR substrates and foil. Please contact sales to investigate further and inquire about pricing and minimum order quantities.

All measurements and drawings are nominal. For exact measurements - and for critical integration - please contact sales for detailed drawings. Carmo is not responsible for misprints and technical changes.
Please note: Products in PVC are inherently susceptible to deformation due to elevated temperatures during storage and transportation. Carmo recommends storing and transporting components between 0 and 30 deg Celsius. In order to help minimise this risk, all Carmo products are shipped in extremely rigid cartons with a comparatively small number of parts per box.
(*) Smaller quantities can be delivered on request for a repacking fee.
