Beadalon Crimp Beads, Size #3, Silver Plated, 1 oz, Approx. 450 pc

What a difference it makes when buying quality materials! I have four other brands of crimps and they are all terrible! They shatter when trying to crimp! These cost a little more but are worth it! They are harder to squeeze due to the higher quality materials used but still easy to use! And they hold great!!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE these so much! I hate tying knots in stretch cord and these work really well to crimp bracelets, anklets, necklaces, etc, closed. And if the surrounding beads are big enough, I can hide the crimped tube inside a bead for a seamless look. Beadalon size 2 crimp beads are the ONLY crimping beads/tubes I trust. No other brand is as sturdy or lasting as Beadalon. My handmade jewelry business would be crippled if I didn't have these to rely on.

These crimps worked well; they formed nicely using a crimping tool and didn’t break. They were very easy to use. The color looked a bit garish but once the necklace was completed the color looked great next to the gold fill beads and findings. I used them in a rough chip diamond necklace I was repairing for a jewelry store. The customer was fine with the quality of these crimps as she wanted the necklace fixed quickly.

This is perfect for my projects. I would recommend for jewelry and suncatchers..

Perfect for crimping fishing line for my beading.

When I received it, it came in a baggy with a sticker on it, not like pictured. I also realized that these are not crimp tube beads and almost returned it. I decided to test this crimp bead and see if it holds the wire for the jewelry I make well. It does!! I tried tagging on it and it stayed nice and strong. The bonus is that I no longer need to use a cover for the crimp bead (unlike the tube crimp) as this crimp bead is pretty and looks like a bead. I’m keeping this package and so glad I decided to try it before returning. Of course using the right crimp tool helps too.

The assortment is exactly as described. I have ordered 1 & 2 lb. Packages. With 1 lb. I had lots of singles, but that’s ok, bc I do lots of monochromatic pieces with varying shades and intensity of a color. If you are looking for pairs or greater multiples of bead, order the largest individual bag you can use or afford. Even then you could get 5 of something , leaving you heart broken that it’s not 6. Same is true of variety. I’ve gotten lots of pinks, and nearly no reds, etc. it just depends on what’s in the tub of mixed beads, and what gets scooped up for your order. Vegas style! I find few, to no beads that have defects. I use lots of these, due to the brilliant colors, as well as lovely pastels. Please don’t buy them, because I want them all!

Very tiny crimp beads. But they work great

to small very hard to put on bead wire

Great item.

As described

Luv it

J'achetai auparavant ces perles en petit sachet; mais c'est plus économique avec ce contenu. La qualité est aussi bonne que pour les petits sachets. Dommage que ce format n'existe pas également pour les perles à écraser de 2 mm.
