Siliconen

Steel strength with a silicone finish

Every piece in this range has a steel or stainless steel core, giving you the same load-bearing reliability as standard metal hardware. The silicone outer layer adds scratch resistance, softens the feel against skin and fur, and eliminates the clanking noise of metal-on-metal contact. A practical upgrade for dog collars, leads and everyday accessories.

The full silicone hardware range

This category includes six types of silicone-coated hardware to cover all your project needs. Silicone rings and silicone snap hooks for collars and leads, silicone tri-glides and stop rings for adjustable fit, silicone buckles for closures, cord end caps and cones for a neat finish and small double sliders for adjustable strap systems.

Popular uses

Silicone-coated hardware is a popular choice for handmade dog collars and leads where a colourful, skin-friendly finish is wanted. The steel core keeps everything strong and reliable under load, while the soft coating is gentle on your dog's coat and skin. Also used in children's accessories, bag hardware and any project where noise reduction or scratch protection matters.
