Jim,

That's not a bad price on eBay.  I wonder if they'll fit my upholstery hog ring pliers?

I'm using them to attach the ends of some bungee cord together that holds a motorcycle seat cover.  I had been using SS lockwire in .041 and thought the hog rings would be much quicker.  They are, but I figured I should use SS since it would be outside in the weather.

Did you have a wholesale source?  I looked at some of mine and only saw regular hog rings.

Rich,

Thanks for the offer, but I'll find some.  I just figured someone on here might use them and know of a source.

Here's a picture of what I'm using them on.

I've ordered quite a few things from them that were hard to find.  I thought I'd checked all of my suppliers...guess not!

Be sure to check their close-out listings too.  Sometimes you'll find some good prices.

I found some for a good price on eBay.  Got some with points good for piercing material and also got some that have flat ends that I'm using for the bungee cord.  I don't have to worry about the flat ends snagging on something.  The place I ordered from were selling them for making wire cages.
