BENECREAT 240-Feet 0.015inch (0.38mm) 7-Strand Bead String Wire Nylon Coated Stainless Steel Wire for Necklace Bracelet Beading Craft Work

It is a 7-strand wire that feels very strong. I have used it to make several necklaces and bracelets with medium weight beads and I have not had any breakage problems. The resistance is perfect to ensure that my creations last a long time. The nylon coating makes the wire very flexible and easy to work with. If you are looking for a high quality crimp wire that is durable, sturdy and easy to handle for all kinds of jewelry projects (necklaces, bracelets, craftsmanship), this BENECREAT product is a fantastic choice. I highly recommend it!

Love this! The quality is really nice and super durable. Easy to cut and overall just nice to work with. Only downside is it comes unraveled very easily and shoots out like a spring. 😂 The turning piece of plastic to help unravel it really doesn’t works but the quality of this is completely worth it. Here’s a piece I made using the same wire.

This works perfectly

The thing about ANY hobby is that there are manufacturers out there that are hell bent on exploiting your addiction. People who play any kind of sport, or participate in any kind of interactive physical exercise, building, sewing, crafting can tell you that to pay for the needed equipment and supplies, you're going to probably have to mortgage the house. Beading supplies and beads are no different. They see you coming. Stringing materials all vary in usefulness and description. But one thing for sure, if you've got beads, you need to string them on something. At least with Benecreat, you get a larger roll choice. And considering the fact that it is coated wire, the price is something to consider. What I like best about Benecreat is that it is difficult to kink... working with it is easy and often frustration-free. That's HUGE in beadworking because it can already be a tedious and painful process without the added aggravation of fighting with your tools and supplies. It is strong and supple, and the gauge I selected is just right for beads that have smaller holes drilled in them. It would be nice to see the price of a roll of this product come down about $1.50... but that is really my only 'complaint'. I recommend this beading wire.

First time using a beading wire for jewelry making and I choose this one, 19 strand, middle of the road. New to bead making jewelry, bracelets so far. My first wire so I have no basis of comparison other than a friend and how she likes whatever brand she's using. I'll tell you what I like and do not like about this one. LIKE: # of feet of wire you get on the spool, amount of wire you get for the $, color is good, stainless steel/gray works good with my silver findings and beads. Don't LIKE so much: IF I'm not careful when I put individual beads on the wire, the ends start to unravel into tiny filaments that I then have to try and retwist back into unraveled point. Sure, maybe it's my inexperience (hey, I'll try wrapping tape around it... might not work in a tiny bead whole).. but early on it was causing me trouble that I was not happy with since this wire is supposed to be coated with nylon to prevent what I'm talking about, right?! I was having to keep cutting off the ends of the wire to deal w/ the issue. Now, I'm doing better w/ it, but I have to be careful. By the time I through with this spool of wire, I'll decide if I switch brands to try another or continue with this one. I'm still glad of the choices Amazon offers and I really do read the reviews, and since this one had so many reviews, I figured this was the one to try the first time. Update: More than a month in and many bracelets made.... I'm switching to another brand. I'm tired of treating this wire with kid gloves to prevent frayed ends. Got to the point that I'll string it first on stretchy cord to get exactly the design and length I want...then remove and restring all on this wire so to try my best not to touch the cut ends until I'm ready to attach toggles, crimp tubes, wires guards, crimp bead covers etc. It really does not seem to be coated with nylon IMO compared to other brands of wire friends use..

Great product for making necklaces!!!

I used this wire for beadwork, and it fits the bill. Thin enough to run up to 3 times through larger beads, and sturdy enough I don't have to worry about snapping the cord. Flexible as advertised, able to twist and bend around the exterior of a bead for making an array of beads. The color is as advertised, but I would love this more if it came in brass or copper color. Enough on the spool for hobbyists, but doubt it would be enough for a business.

Highly recommend it has been perfect for my necklaces . I feel like the roll can produce a ton of necklaces!! Great!
