New Eyelets

2nd March 2004

As a result of the continued investment in machinery we now have an auto-loading eyeleting machine. The introducing of this new machine will standardise the eyelet to one size of 16mm, the 13mm option being discontinued during March.

In addition to offering benefits to GBR in terms of productivity it also has the following features:

• Uses superior Stainless Steel eyelets as opposed to the current Brass items.
• Eyelet has a toothed inner section to grip the fabric, giving improved pullout force of 25% to 50%, depending on fabric types.
