Buckle for bag, correct search term?

forgotmyname

Looking for a clamp/arch/bridge?

Rectangular buckle (D ring type). I can find plenty of D rings and rectangular versions. What i cannot find much of is the metal plate that secures the ring.

I can find these (picture below). Which are a little small for my needs.

Looking for something upto 35mm wide and ideally 4 x 3mm fixings.

Tried D buckle, arch, bridge clamp but the only one that keeps popping up are small brass ones and the ones below.

Anyone know the correct name for them? Or a supplier with different sizes? Thanks.

Perhaps these people could help?https://www.bag-clasps.co.uk

Or maybe even Timpsons or other traditional shoe menders, who all generally repair handbags.

Had a look and its all the same stuff as on ebay, will pop them an email anyway. Not holding much hope.

Looks like i will need to make them.

An image search for things like D-ring plate, tie-down plate, strap anchor plate and variations should find something suitable

Take the item & the bits to a repair shop & they will either tell you the right name, or sell it to you, or finish the repair for you - pretty much your choice if you approach them nicely!

Repair shop? What is one of those?

Nothing around here like that as far as im aware. Used to be a
place in the local market that sold wool and sewing items but they
have gone.

Not seen anything like the actual piece I want though.

35mm across x (upto 50mm tall) with 4 holes 3mm or 3.5mm, needs a cutout or bridge piece 4mm diameter and a backing plate.

Made from metal.

The picture above are approx the right height, but would need 2 side by side. But they may twist being separate.

Think i will have to make them.

Thanks.

Not sure on the size, and it's from flipping China. Maybe cleat is the key word? - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2x-Stainless-Steel-Tie-Down-Surface-Mount-D-Ring-Lashing-Point-Fixing-Cleat/263188394647?_trkparms=aid%3D555018%26algo%3DPL.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140122125356%26meid%3Db773f332b0004feb838a30984e45ebc3%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D3%26sd%3D312116762308%26itm%3D263188394647&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851

Thank you... Cleat brings up a range that i had not seen. Even though i went through all results with the word Ring in them, well past that price also.

Some nice chrome ones elsewhere also (trailer parts)

Just need to make a flat backing which is a lot easier than making the cleat. Thank you again
