Nuote Metals Ships Brass Eyelets to Canada

Shipment Case: 520,000 Pieces to Vancouver

Nuote Metals completed a shipment of brass eyelets to an industrial textile supplier in British Columbia, Canada. The order left our Dongguan factory on April 10, 2026, and is scheduled to arrive at the Port of Vancouver in late May 2026.

Shipment details:

• Product: C26800 brass eyelets (standard flat flange)
• Quantity: 520,000 pieces across 6 sizes (3mm – 8mm inner diameter)
• End-use sectors: Tarpaulins, boat covers, industrial curtains, and heavy-duty canvas goods
• Destination warehouse: Surrey, BC

The buyer audited our factory in February 2026, inspected our ISO quality system, and placed a trial order after reviewing our third-party test reports. This is their first shipment with us.

Real-world application: These brass eyelets are being installed in a electronic product grounding terminals and EMI shielding assemblies for industrial power supplies. Our salt spray test data (72+ hours, ASTM B117) was part of the buyer’s approval package.

FAQ – Brass Eyelets for Canadian Buyers

Q1: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for brass eyelets shipped to Canada?

A1: Standard MOQ for brass eyelets is 20,000 pieces per size and flange type. For first-time Canadian buyers, we accept trial orders from 5,000 pieces. Common stock sizes (3mm, 4mm, 5mm inner diameter) ship from our Dongguan warehouse with no MOQ—just one carton (approx. 3,000–8,000 pieces depending on size). For quantities below 20,000 pieces, unit price is slightly higher to cover setup and inspection costs. Request a quote with your annual volume for tiered pricing.

Q2: Do you provide free samples before I place a production order?

A2: Yes. Free samples of brass eyelets from stock—buyer pays only express shipping (DHL or FedEx to Canada, typically US$50–US$95 depending on weight and destination). Each sample pack includes 20–50 pieces, a material certificate (mill test report), and a dimensional inspection sheet. No deposit or purchase commitment required for stock samples. For custom sizes (non-stock inner diameters or flange shapes), we charge a one-time tooling fee (US$150–US$450 depending on complexity), fully refundable against your first production order of 50,000 pieces or more.

Q3: How can I verify the quality of the brass eyelets before the full shipment leaves your factory?

A3: Three verification options—all free of charge. (1) Pre-shipment video inspection: our QC team records dimensional measurements, visual inspection, and random tensile/hardness testing, then sends you the unedited footage. (2) Third-party inspection by SGS, Bureau Veritas, or any agency you designate—you pay the agency fee; we provide full factory access and samples. (3) For orders over 200,000 pieces, you may send your own quality engineer to our Dongguan factory for a pre-shipment audit. We cover local transportation and provide a dedicated meeting space. All three options are documented in our quality assurance policy, which we include with every quotation.
