Does anyone know where to buy stainless steel grommets? I have checked local hardware stores and dive shops, but no body carries them. I want to put them in the flap of my drysuit pocket to run bungie cord thru. Thanks for any info!!
 
I get mine from www.paragear.com

Make sure to get the correct die and crimp set for the s/s stuff. . . the "regular" inserting die will not set the harder stainless hardware.

I recommend Item: S7690SS-2 for the 3/8" s/s spur grommets, plus the inserting die Item: S7685-S2S.

Not cheap, but good quality tools that will last a long time.

You might want to try nickle-plated brass grommets...I'd told this is what DUI uses. They might be cheaper and easier to find than SS.

You may also want to look at the nickel plated brass gromets.
They are available quite a few places, very inexpensive,
and use the same setting tools as the brass ones.
