Outdoor tarps

[Harold Styles]

I live near the coast, and due to the high humidity and salt, all metal rusts within a single season. What material should the grommets on a quality outdoor awning be made of to prevent them from rusting and ruining the fabric with dirty stains?

I recently read that rust on grommets ruins any awning. This prompted me to look deeper into the matter and found a great resource. The Tarps and Tie Downs Fresno website states that they use high-quality brass grommets. Brass is resistant to moisture and salt, so the grommets won’t rust or leave dirty marks on the fabric, even with constant use in the rain.
