Beadalon 7 Strand Stainless Steel Bead Stringing Wire, 0.010 in / 0.25 mm, Bright, 30 ft / 9.2 m

Just what I needed to repair a necklace.

I love the color, but 7 is absolutely the wrong wire. It doesn’t bend, and it keeps it’s shape, as well as if the wire ends up getting a kink in it you may as well start over. However, would it work for size 15/0? Yes of course.

To be completely honest, I bought this because it was the cheapest. That was not a good idea! 7 looks good, but maintains it’s shape too rigorously. I purchased it for jewelry making and once I put on my extender chain and lobster clasp it looks fine. However, it goes right back to being a straight line. Depending on what you need, I’ve found 2 other things that work great. I like the .015mm 19 strand it’s versatile, but I don’t think it would work on everything. I found my perfect fit to be .024mm 19 strand with an upgrade to a 3mm crimp tube to work the best.

Nice quality ,I would definitely purchase again

If you have tiny beads or larger ones which have been drilled with small holes then this is the right size of wire to use. It's so thin that I almost can't see it against neutral backgrounds, but it seems fairly strong nonetheless. The only struggle I have is finding appropriately sized crimp beads, as the ones I have are for larger sizes of wire and I worry that the 0.010 inch is so small it will slip out. However, this fear is unfounded as of this review as I have made multiple pieces with it so far with no incidents. I will be purchasing more in the future for use with the 1-4mm gemstones beads I have collected but been unable to use up to this point due to the size of stringing holes they have been drilled with.

My daughter in law is learning how to do jewelry, so I gave her some items to start off with.

Good quality

awesome
