What Is a Fly Press Applicator?

A fly press is a manually operated bench press that uses a weighted lever arm and a screw spindle to deliver high, controlled downward force. Fitted with the correct Swarovski or Preciosa die, it sets crystal rivets and pins cleanly and consistently in a single pull of the handle. Because the force is mechanical rather than from a hammer blow, results are even, repeatable and far less tiring over high volumes than hand-setting tools.

What Can You Apply with a Fly Press?

Fitted with the matching manufacturer die, the fly press applies:

  • Swarovski and Preciosa rivets — mechanically-set crystal components fixed to leather, denim, webbing and fabric without glue or heat. The press seats each rivet firmly and evenly for a secure, permanent, professional finish.
  • Swarovski and Preciosa rose pins — decorative crystal pins for embellishing garments, accessories and leather goods, set cleanly and consistently with the matching die.

Genuine Swarovski and Preciosa Application Tools

The fly press, dies and accessories in this collection are genuine Swarovski and Preciosa application equipment, engineered by the manufacturers to set their own crystal rivets and pins to an exact standard. Swarovski is the world's leading crystal brand, manufactured in Austria. Preciosa is a genuine Czech crystal maker and Authorised Partner, drawing on centuries of Bohemian glassmaking heritage. Using the manufacturer's own press and dies ensures a precise, reliable fit every time.

Fly Press Dies and Accessories

Each type and size of Swarovski or Preciosa rivet or pin is applied using its matching die. The interchangeable dies fit the fly press and swap quickly, so one press can set a range of crystal fixings. We also stock spare parts and accessories to keep your press running, from replacement die components to essential spares. Browse the dies and accessories within this collection to match the rivets and pins you use.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Swarovski and Preciosa crystal rivets and pins?
Swarovski and Preciosa crystal rivets and pins are mechanically-set crystal components that fix permanently to fabric and leather without glue or heat. The crystal sits in a metal setting that clamps through the material, giving a secure, professional finish for garments, accessories and leather goods.
Do I need a fly press to apply Swarovski and Preciosa rivets?
A fly press is the professional way to apply Swarovski and Preciosa crystal rivets and pins, setting each one cleanly and consistently in a single pull of the handle. Fitted with the correct die, it delivers even mechanical force for a secure, repeatable finish across high volumes.
How do crystal rivets attach without glue or heat?
Crystal rivets attach mechanically: the fly press drives the setting through the material and clamps it firmly in place, so no adhesive or heat is needed. This creates a permanent, durable bond that withstands washing, movement and wear, making rivets ideal for hard-wearing garments and leather goods.
Do I need different dies for different rivets and pins?
Yes. Each type and size of Swarovski or Preciosa rivet or pin is applied using its own matching die. The dies are interchangeable and swap quickly on the fly press, so one press can set a wide range of crystal fixings as your projects require.
Can one fly press apply both Swarovski and Preciosa rivets?
Yes, provided you fit the correct die for each component. The fly press takes interchangeable dies, so a single press can set both Swarovski and Preciosa crystal rivets and pins. Always use the matching manufacturer die for each rivet or pin to ensure a precise, reliable fit.
What surfaces can I apply crystal rivets and rose pins to?
Crystal rivets and rose pins suit leather, denim, webbing, canvas and most firm fabrics, making them popular for garments, bags, belts, footwear and accessories. Because they set mechanically, they hold securely on hard-wearing materials where glue or hotfix might not provide a lasting bond.
Are these genuine Swarovski and Preciosa application tools?
Yes. Every fly press, die and accessory we supply is authentic Swarovski and Preciosa application equipment, engineered by the manufacturers to set their own crystal rivets and pins. Using the manufacturer's own press and dies ensures a precise, reliable fit and a professional finish every time.
Do you ship fly presses and dies worldwide?
Yes. We ship fly presses, dies and accessories worldwide, with the majority of orders dispatched the same or next working day, including express options to the USA. Trade and bulk buyers can apply for a tiered trade discount on larger and repeat orders.
