304 Stainless Steel Hog Rings — 15 Gauge | Lighter-Duty, Blunt Tip

304 Stainless Steel Hog Rings — 15 Gauge, Blunt Tip

The lighter-duty companion to our 14-gauge rings. Same marine-grade 304 stainless that holds up in wet, salty, and outdoor conditions without rusting — just drawn from thinner 15-gauge wire. That means less bulk in the crimp, less hand effort to close, and more rings per pound, which makes the 15G the smart pick for lighter materials and finer mesh where a full 14-gauge ring is more than the job needs.

The blunt tip closes clean without tearing fabric or cutting your hands. Sold loose by the pound, sized 3/8″ to 1″. Set them with hand pliers for repairs and small runs, or load a pneumatic hog ring gun for high-volume production.

14G or 15G — which one?
Reach for 15-gauge on lighter fabrics, vinyl, finer wire mesh, and high-count production runs where you want easier closing and more rings to the pound. Step up to 14-gauge when you need maximum holding strength on heavier stock and mesh.

One ring, a lot of jobs:

• Aquaculture & trap building — Oyster bags and trap netting.
• Boat & marine upholstery — Fasten cushions, seat covers, and vinyl to frames with stainless that won't rust, streak, or bleed onto your material. The lighter wire seats easily through upholstery without fighting the foam.
• Bedding & furniture — Assemble innerspring units, box springs, and upholstered seating. The lighter crimp and higher piece count suit fast, repeatable production work.
• Gabion baskets & erosion control — Lace and join gabion mesh for retaining walls, shoreline stabilization, and landscaping, with 304 stainless built for years of ground and water exposure.
• Fencing & netting — Secure welded wire, chain link, hardware cloth, and deer, garden, poultry, or aviary netting to posts and rails. Easy closing makes long fence runs go faster.
