BELT LOOP

I create buckles that can mount on a two inch belt. Some customers mount them on narrower belts. This can create a problem. The belt will slide up to the top edge of the belt loop. When this happens the buckle is no longer centered on the belt.




I solder a 10 gage wire around the belt loop at its center.





The customer punches a hole in the fold of the belt at its center. The hole in the belt is mounted over the tab on the belt loop. This way the slot cut in the belt locks onto the tab on the belt loop. The buckle will always be centered on the belt regardless of the width of the belt.
