The TR 500 is a model designed structurally and functionally for thick fabrics, but its "mini" variation implies a dimensional difference:
Material: It is usually made of brass, which gives it excellent resistance to rust.
System Classification: Some manufacturers may also position this snap as part of the 61 system snap group, known for its strong hold.

Lid: (For mini versions, 54 caps are usually used, while for large versions, 61 caps can be used.)

TR 500 Men
