Snappi Cloth Diaper Fastener
The benefits of this fastener include:
- Safer than pins - no more pinpricks for baby or
parent!!
- Reliable - a snug fitting diaper to prevent those
dreaded leaks
- Durable - no snaps that can become brittle/rust,
nor any velcro to catch all the fluff in the wash!!
- Economical – inexpensive and saves parents
who wish to cloth diaper from having to
purchase expensive diapers as they can be
used on flat or prefold cloth diapers
- Hygienic and Easy to use – allows first time
parents, grandparents and people with arthritic
problems to cloth diaper with ease. It is as
easy as 1 – 2 - 3
When the Snappi® fastener is not in use, fold the thin strip at the end of
each leg to the back of the Snappi®, and slip over the teeth of the white grip
- see photo above. This acts as a barrier and prevents the sharp teeth from
being exposed.
Note: Keep all Snappi® fasteners out of children’s reach when not in use
Size: Infant
Color: White, Red, Pink, Mint Green, Pastel Blue, Lilac
DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
Snappi® fasteners must be used responsibly, and need to be used correctly in order to work effectively.
1. STRETCH the Snappi® fastener before its first use. The stretching triggers the 'memory' of the Snappi® to
return to its original size and in so doing, pulls the diaper together to the middle to allow for a snug fit. This is
essential for the Snappi® to work properly. This can be done by holding the Snappi® in the center with one
hand and close to the end of the leg with the other hand. Then s-t-r-e-t-c-h a few times (10 or so). As you do
this you should feel how the material 'softens' or gets more elastic. Follow this stretching procedure with each
leg. The Snappi® is now ready to go!
2. Make sure that the Snappi® is ATTACHED SECURELY. It is important that the Snappi® 'leg' being attached
be stretched across the diaper before hooking it into the diaper. When attaching the Snappi®, hold onto the
solid part of the tab. DO NOT pull on the loops. So,
Hook Left,
Stretch ACROSS and Hook Right,
Stretch DOWN and Hook Center
In other words, the Snappi® fastener should go from a ‘T’ shape to a ‘Y’ shape.
By following these instructions, the Snappi® should be secure and the diaper will fit snugly. ALWAYS place a
cover over the diaper and Snappi® fastener.

Snappi®s WORK BEST with Snappi® terry cloth diapers, cotton prefolds (Chinese or DSQ), and other cloth diapers with a loose
enough weave for the Snappi® to hook into. They DO NOT work well flannel or any other tightly woven diapers, even some hemp
diapers.
WARNING:
1. ALWAYS use a cover when using a Snappi® fastener with your baby’s diaper.
2. Keep out of children’s reach when not in use!
3. Do NOT use a Snappi® fastener on toddlers that have the ability to undo their cover and take off their diaper and/or clothes.
4. Do not use your Snappi® for longer than 6 months.
5. Do not leave your Snappi® lying in the sun as it is not UV resistant and can reduce the effectiveness of the Snappi®.
CARE: Clean your Snappi® in hot soapy water. Do not launder them with diapers in the washer as this may weaken the grip
attachment.
CAUTION: Any tear in the Snappi® can lead to separation of a piece, presenting a possible choking hazard. Do not cut your
Snappi® as this could create weak spots in your Snappi®. Do not pull on the side strips of the Snappi® when attaching it, as this
can cause them to break. These strips serve as a safety feature only, as mentioned above. Use the flat tabs for leverage.
Inspect your Snappi® before each use and discontinue use immediately if there is any sign of cracking, tearing, breakage or
wear of the teeth or any other parts.
