- What is tiger tail wire used for?
- It is beading wire for stringing necklaces, bracelets and earrings. The nylon coating slides through beads and the steel core keeps the piece from stretching.
- Will 0.25mm wire fit small beads?
- Yes, 0.25mm is a fine gauge that passes most seed beads and small-hole beads. Check the hole size on very tiny beads before stringing.
- How do I finish the ends?
- Use crimp beads or crimp tubes with a crimping tool, or wire guardians at the clasp. Knots alone can slip on coated steel wire.
- Is it strong enough for a bracelet?
- It suits light bracelets and necklaces. For heavy stone beads or pieces that get pulled, a thicker beading wire is a safer choice.
- Does the coating come off?
- The nylon coating can fray at sharp crimps or where it rubs a rough clasp. Trim cleanly and avoid sharp-edged findings.
- How much wire is on the roll?
- The roll holds 150m of 0.25mm wire, enough for many small jewelry projects.
