Eyelets for Frames and Top Bars - Brass - 500 pcs
Are you looking for a way to significantly extend the lifespan of your beekeeping frames and ensure that the wiring remains tight throughout the entire season? High-quality brass eyelets are the most widely used and effective solution worldwide for professional and hobby beekeepers alike. This package contains 500 pieces, which is an ideal quantity for equipping dozens of frames.
Protection of Your Frames and Investment
The main benefit of using eyelets is mechanical protection of wooden top bars. When tensioning wire without eyelets, it very often cuts into the soft wood. This has two negative consequences: loosening of wire tension (which leads to wavy foundation and poor comb construction) and irreversible damage to the frame itself. Frames wired with the help of our brass eyelets have a significantly longer lifespan and remain sturdy even after melting out old comb.
Why Choose Brass?
Unlike ordinary steel washers, brass has fundamental advantages in the hive environment. It is resistant to corrosion, which is crucial in an environment with high humidity and exposure to formic acid or oxalic acid (during treatment). Brass eyelets do not oxidize as quickly, do not stain the comb, and ensure smooth wire passage during tensioning, thereby reducing the risk of wire breakage.
Easy Installation and Use
These eyelets are designed to fit precisely into standard pre-drilled holes in top bars (usually 2.5 – 3 mm). Their application is simple – they can be inserted by hand or using an eyelet pusher or special punches. Thanks to a small rim on one side, they hold firmly in place and do not fall out.

Tip for beekeepers: For best results, we recommend installing eyelets before assembling the frame, or use combination pliers for punching and eyeleting in one step. The investment in eyelets will pay for itself at the first wax melting, when the frame remains undamaged and ready for further use.
