This wire has more body than string or cord, and more flexibility than regular 3-strand beading wire. It has an unbelievably soft drape, and a very high resistance to kinking and getting permanent 'creases', unlike the less expensive wires. This is the wire used by professionals! This wire is a miniature cable made up of twenty-one strands of wire, and coated with nylon for a smooth finish. Use this FINE weight of Soft Flexl beading wire for stringing necklaces with lightweight and non-abrasive beads, such as pearls and small glass beads. Finish with crimp beads. Quantity: Each lot consists of 1 spool of 30 feet of Softflex beading wire.
