Sun Shade Grommet Mounts – Hook & Eyelet
I designed these mounts for a fabric sun shade fitted with metal grommets around its edges.
The grommets of my sun shade have an inner diameter of 10 mm.
I needed two different types of attachment:
Hook version – for hanging the upper edge of the sun shade from a steel cable.
Eyelet version – for attaching a rope to the lower edge and tensioning the fabric.
Both versions use the same simple mounting principle.
A plug is pushed through the grommet from one side. The hook or eyelet is then placed onto the plug from the other side.
The connection is permanently secured with the small locking piece. Add one or two drops of superglue into the plug and push the locking piece fully into place.
This creates a compact attachment that sits securely in the existing grommet without requiring screws, nuts or other metal hardware.
Variants
Hook Mount
The hook version is intended for hanging the sun shade from a steel cable, wire rope or similar support.
The open hook makes it easy to attach or remove the complete sun shade without having to disconnect the steel cable.
Eyelet Mount
The closed eyelet version provides an attachment point for a rope or cord.
It is especially useful for the lower edge of the sun shade, where the fabric can be tensioned or tied down.

Printing Information
The STL file is correctly aligned.
For outdoor use I recommend PETG.
PLA is not recommended for permanently installed sun shades because elevated temperatures and prolonged sunlight may cause deformation over time.
Layer height: 0.2 mm
Perimeters: 2
Infill: 100 %
Supports: no
Assembly
Push the plug through the grommet.
Place the hook or eyelet onto the plug from the opposite side.
Add one or two drops of superglue into the opening of the plug.
Push the locking piece completely into the plug.
Allow the glue to cure before applying any load.
Once glued, the connection is intended to remain permanently assembled.
I am looking forward to your Makes! :-)
