Creatives™ Plated Memory Wire
Crimp Bead Covers
This item offers a clever and more appealing way to hide
crimp beads – and it couldn’t be easier! All you have to do is
squeeze the cover closed around the crimp using a crimping
plier such as our PLCRIMP. The original (small) cover –
which is now also available in both silver and gold
filled–measures 3.2mm when closed and may be used to
cover 2 x 2mm crimps or smaller. We have also added a
larger 4mm cover, which comes in sterling silver only.
Sold by the bag of 100.

adding significantly to both the precision of the cut and
cutting capacity. Gives square ended cuts on both the cut
and off-cut sides. Cuts wire up to 0.060".
The PL280 allows easier cutting in difficult areas. An angled head
provides excellent sight lines when used in either the vertical or
horizontal position. A slim profile increases accessibility to hard
to reach surfaces. Light weight, glare eliminating black finish,
and non-slip Xuro-Rubber™ grips ensure operator comfort. Flush
cuts soft wire up to 20 AWG (0.8mm).

made of heavy roller polished vinyl for years of beading fun. It’s easy to assemble too! And, because it is
