Crimp Bead Fluted Silver Plating 3mm

$390 $600

SKU: FI162-SR

These 3mm fluted crimp beads in silver plate are a finishing workhorse — the ridged exterior grips stringing wire more securely than smooth crimps and doubles as a subtle design detail at the clasp end.

The silver plate finish reads clean and modern, with just enough sheen to complement both bright silver findings and cooler-toned gemstones without competing with them.

Specifications

  • Size: 3mm

  • Finish: Silver Plate
  • Material: Metal
  • Quantity: 50 Pieces

What to make with them

Use them to finish necklaces and bracelets on beading wire, or flatten them with crimping pliers for a low-profile close on multi-strand designs. The 3mm size is substantial enough to handle heavier strands without looking clunky.

Description

Crimp beads and Crimp tubes are a vital element when designing with beading stringing wire. What's the difference between a crimp <b>bead</b> and a crimp <b>tube? Crimp <b>beads</b> are round and look like little metal seed beads. Crimp <b>tubes</b> are more cylindircal. Crimp beads take up less space in your design, but crimp tubes offer more surface contact with the wire, thus making them a bit more secure. Basically, you'll want to select a crimp <b>tube</b> when finishing off the ends of necklaces and bracelets, or when your crimp will not be highly visible. Choose a crimp <b>bead</b> when incorporating crimps into more visible areas of your designs such as when showcasing your wire, illusion designs, and when using them as accent beads or spacers.<br>Use a Crimping plier for best crimping results.
