Using Dee Rings

Dee rings are those little rings shaped like the letter D, so that must be where they got their name. Once you start looking for them, you will find them all over the place. They are very versatile and can be creatively used on many different things.

When used on the ends of fabric, you can create some cute belts. When I made aprons, I used them on the neck strap so it could be easily adjusted to fit different people. I have also used them on ties on the back of vests so they can be tightened as needed.

Dee rings come in plastic as well as metal. Of course you should consider the strength of the ring if you will be using it for anything that requires great strength. Of course a plastic one wouldn’t be as strong as a heavy duty metal one.

Heavy duty rings can be secured to solid objects by using a metal or fabric strap. You can find them at the ends of tow ropes and chains. In theater work they are used to lift scenery up or down.

These rings are often found on bridles and saddles used on horses. Climbing and scuba gear also use these kinds of rings. They are even on some kinds of riffles.

You will most likely find them on purses, luggage, back packs and fanny packs. Dog collars and leashes use them so clips can be easily attached. They are great for attaching straps or giving a place to clip something else on.

These rings are very versatile, and really can be used all over the place. When you select one, just remember to match it’s strength to the job it will be doing. Plastic rings are light weight and work well it they will be subjected to water, since they don’t rust.

One of the advantages of Dee rings is that they can be used singly such as for hang something or for clipping something else to them. When used in pairs they create a way to wrap the belt or strap between the two so the belt can be tightened and then held secure by the position of the rings. Take a look around you and see how many ways you can find them used.

The owner of the dog ought to be well-informed about the types of collars available and how to use them properly as to not inflict injury to the dog. Jim Witt recommends visiting Country Brook Design to view the wide assortment of custom made Martingale Collars that are available in many sizes and colors.
