Anyone know where to find these teeny tiny grommets that taper to a smaller inside diameter? All I can find online are ones with a more straight up and down interior wall. Looking to incorporate these into a lap steel bridge design. The small size is of great importance |

No, but they look like printed circuit board thru hole ferrules a.k.a "PCB via". This is likely not what you are looking for but for reference: https://www.ebay.com/itm/352657351775?i ...

Try guitar string ferrules on Amazon, lots there. Hard to guess what the rest of yours look like embedded in the bridge. Yours look nice though and I see why you are looking for them. |

THROUGH HOLE RIVETS!!!!! Kbore, thank you! Those are the ones. Ferrules, grommets and even eyelets I had searched, but these are what I'm looking for - the softer radius at the top, unlike the aforementioned with a more severe break angle, probably too sharp for a string. I must have looked through a gazillion pictures yesterday, funny that I never came across through hole rivets. Thanks again! |
