  • Our take on the Sterling Silver Round Wire - Half Hard

    This is .925 sterling silver round wire in half hard temper, sold in pre-cut 12 inch lengths. Half hard sits between dead soft and full hard: firm enough to hold ear wires, jump rings and structural wirework under stress, yet still bendable with standard hand tools. It is certified conflict-free and refined mostly from recycled U.S. precious metals, which matters to jewelers who care about sourcing. Compared with dead soft wire it resists deforming in wear; compared with full hard it is far easier to shape at the bench.

    Sterling silver round wire in half hard temper, for forming ear wires, jump rings, findings and structural wirework at the bench. The temper is firm enough to hold its shape under stress and still workable with standard hand tools.

    Questions and answers

    What does half hard temper mean?
    It sits between dead soft and full hard. The wire is firm enough to hold its shape under stress but still bends with standard hand tools.
    Is this wire solid sterling silver?
    Yes. It is .925 sterling silver alloyed with .075 copper, certified conflict-free and refined mostly from recycled U.S. precious metals.
    What lengths does it come in?
    Each piece is a pre-cut 12 inch (305 mm) length. The same wire is also stocked in one ounce coils for longer continuous runs.
    Which gauge should I choose?
    Gauges run from 6 (4.12 mm) down to 30 (0.25 mm). Thicker gauges suit structural work and clasps; thinner gauges suit ear wires and fine findings.
    Is it good for ear wires and jump rings?
    Yes. Half hard is the usual choice for ear wires, jump rings and findings because it resists bending out of shape in wear.
    How should I care for it?
    Sterling silver tarnishes over time. Store finished pieces dry and use a silver polishing cloth to restore shine.
