Hook And Eye: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $1.17 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.01 at volume, on a typical 15-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point for a sourcing conversation rather than a binding quote.

What moves the price
For hook and eye, the drivers are material, compatibility, chemical resistance, temperature rating, thickness, profile, cylinder size, thread or fit type — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Price is most affected by metal base (steel vs brass vs plated alloys), plating finish, and whether the hook-and-eye is sold as a sewn closure pair, bra fastening, or jewelry clasp-style finding. The most realistic supplier routes are China wholesale marketplaces and trade suppliers for sub-$0.20/unit bulk, while U.S.-facing sewing notions retailers usually sit far above true bulk pricing and are not representative of OEM or import costs. The published wholesale quotes here are thin for jewelry-specific hook-and-eye closures, so the lower tiers are partly anchored by adjacent hook-and-eye closure listings and the same supplier families; custom finishes or tighter spring tolerance would push toward the top of each band.
