Sea Sense Canvas Fastener Snap Kit, 73-Piece Set with Canvas Snap Plier, Caps, Sockets, Studs and Posts

The Sea Sense Canvas Fastener Snap Kit (part number 50048257) is a 73-piece marine hardware kit built to replace worn or missing canvas snaps, caps, sockets, studs, and posts on boat covers, bimini tops, and other canvas installations. The kit is centered around a heavy-duty canvas snap plier, which lets you set new snap fasteners in place of a trip to a custom canvas repair shop, so you can service your own boat canvas whenever a snap fails or a section of cover needs new hardware.

Inside the kit you get one canvas snap plier along with 18 caps, 18 sockets, 18 studs, and 18 posts, giving you enough matched hardware to handle multiple repair points across a cover, top, or enclosure in one pass. The plier itself is made of stainless steel with an ergonomic grip, works like a standard vice grip, and is sized for gripping and setting canvas snap components without extra tools. Because the plier and hardware are packaged together, this kit works for both first-time installations and ongoing maintenance, and the plier can also be used on its own for future snap work once the included hardware is used up.

This kit suits any boat owner, canvas installer, or camper-top user who wants to keep snap fasteners in working order without outsourcing the repair. It is a straightforward, do-it-yourself solution for common canvas snap failures.
