Strong, flexible, and kink resistant, Accu-Flex® professional-quality beading wire is intended to be part of the design. This beading wire is flexible, resists kinking and is best when crimped. Accu-Flex beading wire is free of heavy metals and can be recycled. The hard plastic spool is made of polystyrene that can also be recycled.
Midnight black beading wire displays a rich, dark neutral, ideal for the darkest colors of glass, gemstone and metal beads. Nylon coating protects the metal cable underneath, protecting from abrasion.
Cable-style beading wire made of stainless steel alloys offers flexibility, corrosion resistance and a robust tensile strength for its gauge.
Stainless steel Accu-Flex with a 0.019 inch diameter has a tensile strength of 24.7 pounds. Tensile strength or "pound test" refers to the maximum amount of tensile (pulling or stretching) force that a material can withstand before breaking. This strength is ideal for heavyweight strung designs using larger gemstone, lampworked glass, porcelain, crystal and metal beads, plus similarly weighted beads and components. Wire diameter may vary by 0.35-0.36mm.
The 30-foot spool is ideal for one-of-a-kind jewelry and creating or testing design prototypes.
