The Jopevi J-21 is a portable, manual-feed pneumatic grommet machine that punches a hole in your material and sets the grommet and washer in a single action. This model can set Stimpson plain sheet metal grommets and washers, sizes #00 (3/16″ hole) through #4 (1/2″ hole), making it the ideal choice for flag manufacturers, small shops, prototyping, and medium-production manual-feed operations running approximately 2,500 pieces per week. Your operator will appreciate the J-21’s efficient, quiet, and dependable operation, as well as its versatility and adjustability to handle industrial fabrics of many types, including nylon and polyester flag fabric, vinyl, PVC, canvas, leather, sailcloth, webbing, seatbelt material, and more. Despite its compact, lightweight footprint, the J-21 is strong enough to set through multiple layers of nylon webbing and seatbelt material, making it equally at home on lightweight textile work and demanding industrial substrates.
With a setting capacity of 900 fasteners per hour, the J-21 dramatically outpaces hand-punching and hand-setting, improving productivity immediately. The J-21’s foot pedal actuation lets the operator position the material with two-handed precision, ensuring perfect placement of the setting every time in under one second. The J-21’s integrated stainless steel work plate regulates backspace and spacing between settings, making consistent setting placement effortless. A built-in finger guard protection mechanism prevents the machine from cycling when the setting dies are obstructed by the operator’s fingers or other external components, improving operator safety throughout the production run. Setting dies can be easily adjusted to accommodate different grommet sizes and material thicknesses, making the J-21 an extremely versatile addition to any workbench. The J-21 can also be set up to simply punch holes in your material or set the grommet alone.
