Stimpson Eyelet Barrel Styles

Closed End Barrel

A closed end can be used to fasten different pieces together while eliminating the pass through of air, dirt, grease, or other foreign matter. To set, the end of the barrel is bumped to collapse tightly against the work pieces. Also commonly used as a press fit into materials as a hole reinforcement to seat dowel, rods, etc.

Oblong and Square Barrels

In addition to the most common barrel styles described above, Oblong and Square Barrels are popular for specialized applications.

Pre-Coiled Barrel

Normally used as spacers, they are frequently molded in place in rubber or plastics.

Shoulder Eyelets

So called because the barrel consists of two distinct diameters resulting in a stepped shoulder effect. Used to join parts with dissimilar hole sizes; or with the upper (larger) barrel portion acting as a spacer.

Straight Barrel

Straight barrel eyelets are the most commonly used. The holes in the materials to be fastened together are usually the same size, and the straight barrel aids in alignment.

Tapered Barrel

The barrel has a definite tapering down of diameter from just under the flange to the bottom end. Desirable primarily in fastening soft materials since the taper provides an easy insertion into the work.
