Soft Flex Beading Wire

Available in Fine (.014), Medium (.019), and Heavy (.024) spools.

Which diameter Soft Flex Beading Wire should you use? To a large extent it is a matter of preference but here's a quick quide:

Fine .014 is designed for softer, less abrasive materials such as freshwater pearls and seed beads. Diameter .014 offers the softness and flexibility of pearl stringing threads yet has the strength of stainless steel.

Medium .019 was designed for use with small to medium glass beads, Austrian crystals, silver, pewter, 80% of freshwater pearls and seed beads. Recommended when you are designing with a variety of materials.

Heavy .024 was designed for abrasive materials and designs that will meet excessive movement such as watchbands and bracelets. It's great for multi-strand designs, African trade beads and large stones.
