Rapid 53/6 mm stainless steel rivets. Stainless steel fine-wire rivets for textiles
Rapid 53/6 mm stainless steel rivets are professional fine-wire rivets for the neat and reliable fastening of textiles, Deco Molton, flannel, film and other thin materials. The fine wire of Rapid type 53 rivets makes them particularly suitable for applications where the fastening must be as inconspicuous as possible and damage to the material must be kept to a minimum.
This version has a shank length of 6 mm and is made from stainless steel. It therefore combines a compact fastening solution with excellent resistance to moisture and corrosion.
The pack contains 1,080 stainless steel staples.
Ideal for Deco Molton, flannel and thin fabrics
For fastening Deco Molton, flannel and other decorative fabrics, fine-wire staples are a practical choice. The thin wire penetrates the fabric easily and ensures a small and relatively inconspicuous fastening.
The 6 mm shank length is particularly suitable for thin materials and light fastening tasks where a longer staple is neither necessary nor desirable.
This makes Rapid 53/6 staples ideal for use in event construction, stand construction, set design, theatre, upholstery and temporary decorations.
Rapid type 53/6 fine-wire staples
The designation 53/6 indicates both the type and the length of the staple. Rapid type 53 is a widely used fine-wire staple for textiles, upholstery and decorative materials. In this version, the legs are 6 mm long.
The short shank length makes the 53/6 particularly suitable for lightweight materials and applications where only a limited penetration depth is required.
For thicker materials, multiple layers of fabric or applications where greater grip in the substrate is required, a longer Type 53 staple, such as 8 or 10 mm, may be more suitable.
Stainless steel staples for damp conditions
These Rapid staples are made from stainless steel. Stainless steel offers greater resistance to moisture and corrosion than standard galvanised staples.
This makes this version suitable for applications in damp conditions and for assembly work where a durable, corrosion-resistant fastening is required.
For standard use in dry indoor environments, a galvanised Type 53 staple may be a cost-effective alternative.
Suitable for Rapid Type 53 tackers
The Rapid 53/6 mm stainless steel staples are suitable for tackers that support Rapid type 53 fine-wire staples with a shank length of 6 mm.
They can be used with various suitable Rapid hand tackers and cordless tackers. Always check before use which staple types and lengths are supported by the tacker in question.
For event construction, stand construction and decoration
When fitting out events, stages, exhibition stands and sets, fabric is often attached directly to wooden frames or panels. With a suitable tacker and Rapid 53/6 stainless steel staples, this can be done quickly and neatly.
The combination of the fine wire, short 6 mm shank length and corrosion-resistant stainless steel makes this variant particularly suitable for lightweight textile installations where a neat finish is important.
