The 16GA SR8 galvanized hog rings are collated C-rings designed for upholstery, automotive seating, wire cages, netting, nursery work, bag closure and compatible light fencing applications. They feature an 11/16 inch / 17.5 mm open crown, approximately 9/32 inch / 7.1 mm closed inside diameter and 1.60 mm 16 Gauge steel wire.
SR8 galvanized rings are available with sharp or blunt points. Sharp-point rings are commonly selected where penetration through compatible fabric or netting is required, while blunt-point rings are useful where the ring primarily closes around wire or other components without piercing the material.
Each collated strip contains 50 rings, with 2,500 rings per box for professional upholstery shops, cage manufacturers, distributors and industrial fastening users.
SR8 is a 16 Gauge C-style hog ring series designed for compatible strip-fed manual and pneumatic C-ring tools. During fastening, the open ring is positioned around the materials being joined and the tool closes the ring to its finished diameter.
16 Gauge / 1.60 mm wire: Industrial C-ring profile for compatible SR8 tools.
11/16 inch open crown: Approximately 17.5 mm before closing.
9/32 inch closed I.D.: Approximately 7.1 mm finished inside diameter.
Galvanized steel: Zinc-coated surface provides corrosion protection for suitable applications.
Sharp or blunt points: Allows selection according to material and fastening method.
50 rings per strip: Collated format supports repetitive tool feeding.
2,500 rings per box: Suitable for professional and bulk purchasing.

| Description | Part Number | Point | Rings/Strip | Rings/Box |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Galvanized | SR8G | Sharp | 50 | 2,500 |
| Galvanized | SR8GB | Blunt | 50 | 2,500 |

| Galfan | SR8GFB | Blunt | 50 | 2,500 |
| Model | Point | Typical Selection |
|---|---|---|
| SR8G | Sharp | Applications where the ring needs to penetrate compatible fabric, netting or other material during closing. |
| SR8GB | Blunt | Applications where piercing is unnecessary and the ring primarily closes around wire or pre-positioned components. |
Point selection should be based on the material being joined and the required fastening method. For replacement orders, provide the existing SR8 part number or a sample specification to confirm the correct version.
SR8G and SR8GB use galvanized steel. The zinc-coated surface provides corrosion protection for suitable upholstery, cage, netting, fencing, nursery and general industrial fastening applications.
Galvanized steel should not automatically be treated as equivalent to stainless steel or Galfan in highly corrosive environments. For persistent moisture, salt exposure, chemicals or demanding outdoor service, compare the required service conditions with the available SR8SS or SR8GF material options before ordering.
SR8 galvanized hog rings are designed for compatible strip-fed C-ring and hog ring tools. Compatibility should be confirmed by the complete SR8 ring specification rather than crown size alone because magazine profile, wire diameter and closing geometry can vary between tool systems.
| Compatibility Item | Required Specification |
|---|---|
| Ring Series | SR8 |
| Gauge | 16 Gauge / Approx. 1.60 mm |
| Open Crown | 11/16" / Approx. 17.5 mm |
| Closed I.D. | 9/32" / Approx. 7.1 mm |
| Feed Format | 50-Ring Collated Strip |
| Tool Type | Compatible Manual or Pneumatic SR8 C-Ring Tool |
If the existing tool brand and model are known, provide that information when requesting replacement rings so feeding and closing compatibility can be checked before bulk ordering.
SR8 C-rings are used where fabric, wire, mesh, netting, cord or similar components must be mechanically joined by closing a ring around the materials.
| Application | Typical Fastening Work |
|---|---|
| Furniture Upholstery | Attaching compatible upholstery materials, support wires, springs and furniture components. |
| Automotive Seating | Fastening seat upholstery and wire-support components where SR8 rings are specified. |
| Animal and Bird Cages | Joining compatible wire mesh during cage and enclosure assembly. |
| Bird-Control Netting | Connecting suitable netting sections or attaching netting to compatible support wire. |
| Cargo Netting | Joining compatible light netting and cord assemblies. |
| Light Fencing | Fastening suitable wire mesh and light fencing materials. |
| Nursery Work | B&B trees, pot tagging, trellis and compatible nursery fastening applications. |
| Bag Closure | Closing compatible mesh, fabric and industrial bags. |
| Bungee Cord Assembly | Closing suitable elastic or cord assemblies where an SR8 ring is specified. |
Selecting a replacement SR8 ring requires confirming the tool, point style, closed diameter, material combination and corrosion environment. Matching only the open crown is not sufficient for reliable feeding and closure.
| Selection Factor | What to Confirm |
|---|---|
| Tool Model | Confirm that the tool is designed for SR8-format rings. |
| Sharp or Blunt | Select according to whether the application requires material penetration. |
| Closed Diameter | Confirm approximately 7.1 mm provides the required finished closure. |
| Component Thickness | Check the combined size of wire, fabric, mesh, cord or other components being joined. |
| Corrosion Requirement | Choose galvanized, Galfan or stainless steel according to the expected environment. |
| Material / Finish | Typical Selection |
|---|---|
| Galvanized SR8G / SR8GB | General upholstery, cages, netting, nursery and suitable light-exposure applications requiring zinc-coated steel. |
| Galfan SR8GF / SR8GFB | Applications requiring a zinc-aluminum coated ring with enhanced corrosion resistance. |
| Stainless SR8SS | Applications requiring stainless steel according to environmental or project requirements. |
For high-moisture, chemical, coastal or other demanding environments, confirm the required material with the project specification rather than selecting solely by ring dimensions.

SR8 galvanized hog rings are 16 Gauge with a listed wire diameter of approximately 1.60 mm.
The open crown is approximately 11/16 inch / 17.5 mm.
The listed closed inside diameter is approximately 9/32 inch / 7.1 mm.
SR8G is the galvanized sharp-point version, while SR8GB is the galvanized blunt-point version.
Sharp-point rings are commonly selected when the ring needs to penetrate suitable fabric, netting or similar material during installation.
Blunt-point rings are suitable when piercing is unnecessary and the ring primarily closes around wire or other pre-positioned components.
Each collated SR8 strip contains approximately 50 rings.
The standard listed packaging contains 2,500 rings per box.
SR8 hog rings are used with compatible manual or pneumatic strip-fed C-ring tools designed for the SR8 format. Confirm the exact tool model before ordering replacement rings.
Yes. Furniture upholstery and automotive seating are common SR8 applications when the ring dimensions, point style and finished closure match the materials being joined.
Yes. SR8 rings are commonly used for compatible animal cages, bird-control netting, cargo netting and other light wire or mesh fastening applications.
Galvanized steel provides corrosion protection and can be used in suitable exposed applications. For persistent moisture, salt, chemicals or demanding long-term outdoor exposure, consider whether Galfan or stainless steel is required.
Galvanized SR8 rings use a zinc-coated steel surface. Galfan SR8 rings use a zinc-aluminum coating and are a separate material option for applications requiring greater corrosion resistance.
Provide the required SR8 part number, sharp or blunt point, quantity, destination country and C-ring tool model. For replacement purchases, also provide the current ring dimensions or reference number if available.
