Hot Fix Rhinestone – Product Description

Product Overview

Hot fix rhinestones, also known as heat transfer rhinestones or iron-on rhinestones, are premium decorative crystal stones pre-coated with a heat-sensitive adhesive on the flat back-. When heat is applied, the adhesive melts and securely bonds the rhinestone to the surface of fabrics, leather, and other materials. These versatile embellishments offer a quick, clean, and professional way to add dazzling sparkle to garments, accessories, and craft projects without the need for additional glue.

At Dongguan Meixing Jewelry Co., Ltd., we specialize in the manufacturing and supply of high-quality hot fix rhinestones, backed by over 16 years of industry expertise and rigorous quality control. Our products are trusted by clients across the globe for their consistent brilliance, durability, and ease of application.

Key Features

• Premium Crystal Glass Material – Crafted from high-quality crystal glass with precision cutting, our rhinestones deliver superior brilliance, high clarity, and exceptional sparkle. The multi-faceted design maximizes light refraction for a luxurious, diamond-like shimmer.

Application Instructions

For best results, please follow these guidelines:

1. Preheat your tool to the recommended temperature: 170–180°C (338–356°F). Adjust based on fabric type; for delicate materials like leather, reduce to 280–300°F (138–149°C)-.

2. Position the rhinestone on the desired surface with the flat (glue-coated) side down.

3. Apply heat and pressure using a heat press, household iron (set to "cotton" setting, steam off), or hot fix rhinestone applicator.

4. Pressing time varies by size:

   • SS6–SS12: 15–20 seconds (iron) / 10–15 seconds (applicator)

   • SS16–SS20: 20–30 seconds (iron) / 15–25 seconds (applicator)

   • SS30–SS34: approx. 1 minute

   • SS40: approx. 1.5 minutes

   • SS50: approx. 2 minutes

5. Allow to cool completely before testing adhesion. The glue remains melted when hot and may peel off if disturbed prematurely.

6. Test on a remnant piece first to confirm temperature and time settings.

Note: If a hot fix tool is not available, these rhinestones can also be applied using additional fabric glue without heat.
