Beadalon49 Strand Stainless Steel Bead Stringing Wire, .018 in / 0.46 mm, Bright, 30 ft / 9.2 m

This is my Go-To bracelet making “wire/string” when stretchy material is just not strong enough or appropriate for beads I’m using or the person I’m making it for.Sure, I’ve tried competitors whose wire frayed, split, not flexible enough & on&on.The coating around the multi wire bundle is just 1 of the keys IMO to this wires excellence. Haven’t broken a bracelet since using this & I wear bracelets a lot!! Super easy to work well th & very malleable..A jewelry maker puts a lot of time, effort & creativity into a project or gift, so why not insure your efforts last by using the best foundation materials you can, right!!?? Get this, you’ll be glad you did.

I use this wire to make two crafts with the heavier one being a suncatcher made of a 30mm prism and between 10-15 lampwork beads with gemstone beads in the middle. This wire has no problem holding all of that weight without fraying. It is exceptionally flexible which allows my suncatchers to dangle freely. I previously used 19 strand wire and the flexibility of this wire is considerably noticeable. The coating on this wire also makes stringing beads a breeze.I have been using the Beadalon Bright wire for a couple of years now exclusively. It is better than than any other brand at a fraction of the cost. The .018 is perfect for my project as well as necklaces and bracelets. It is non-tarnishing and in my opinion a great alternative to authentic silver wire.

Very good quality, fast shipping

I used this to fix my swarovski bracelet that kept breaking on me and I was tired of taking it to the Swarovski store. I went to get it fixed about 5 times and the last time it broke not even a week in not to mention in the same spot so I don't even think they bothered to replace the string. This wire seems really strong and it was perfect for the beads but since I wanted to string it twice it took a little long but it was worth the time as I was very pleased with how it turned out. Going to see how long it holds up.

It's strong and does not kink. Only wire I use.

Low priced alternative to intruder wire for tying articulated streamers.

Good price.

Always good quality
