What it does:
- Reinforces fabric and prevents tearing around the fastener
- Holds the socket part of the fastener securely in place
- Prevents the fastener from pulling out under tension
- Distributes load across a wider area for added strength
Common Applications:

- Tonneau covers
- Canvas enclosures
Available Finishes:
- Nickel plate

Common Sense fasteners are locking turn-buttons that will not open accidentally. Each has a spring mechanism that holds the fastener under tension in the desired position until turned and released by hand.
