Q: Hello. I am considering sewing a new sail cover. I would like to use the cloth to cloth dot turn button stud and a long Prong Turn Button socket. My question is : do I need a special tool to install those?

Asked by: Antigua - 8/2/2019

A: Hi Antigua

To install the cloth to cloth dot turn button studs you would need a tool to crimp the buttons. Here is a link to our most inexpensive tool for this job.

I suggest you get the regular turn button sockets for a sail cover rather than the long prong turn button sockets because the fabric thickness will be minimal. As far as a tool, you may consider a turn button hole punch to make the holes to except the male turn button portion, You can also use an utility knife to make the holes if you are not in a hurry. Here is a link to the turn button hole punch.
