The DOT Lift-the-DOT Three-Way Locking Fastener Socket is the upper eyelet (female portion) of the Lift-the-DOT fastener system. When the stud (male component) is fastened in place, it creates a three-way locking mechanism that can only be released by pulling the canvas top away from the side that displays the visible branding.

Constructed from durable nickel-plated brass, Lift-the-DOT fasteners provide excellent corrosion resistance and long-lasting performance in outdoor environments, making them well suited for marine, automotive, and other demanding canvas uses.

Installation Guide:

1. Mark and cut the prong holes using the 4020 Curtain Fastener Hand Cutter or a similar tool, ensuring that when installed, the sockets brand markings face the outer edge of the canvas
2. Insert the socket through the prong holes, flip the canvas over, and install the backplate (sold separately) on the reverse side
3. Fold the prongs inward over the washer until the fastener is firmly secured

Available in single (5.5 mm leg) and double (6.8 mm leg) configurations to accommodate various fabric thicknesses.
