Gold-Plated Pewter Crimp End Cap with Loop

This gold-plated pewter crimp end is great for finishing your designs with a touch of functional beauty. Use it to finish "S" clasps, trigger clasps or even lobster clasps. Its 9.5x4.5mm size will look great with beads of similar size. Pair this piece with a multitude of colors to give them a warm accent tone, like royal purple or soft blue. Be sure to browse more of our crimp ends and covers to discover new ways to create unique jewelry designs!

"I was really happy to fine these and hope Artbeads will still carry them. The size is perfect and not easy to find in this color, quality and price point. They worked very well and looked good in the necklace I made, combined with a shiny brass pendant and the 1.5mm leather cord Artbeads carries. I've used these crimp ends twice now and find they crimp or squish down easily with little pressure. If I use a pulsing motion rather than squeeze hard all at once, the look is more finished and even and the middle section less prone to unsightly separation from the ends. I seldom leave reviews and am very particular about quality and the feedback I've received on this piece from my customers was nothing but positive."

Waste of money

"These were useless - if crimped enough to secure the wire, the middle portion breaks away from the end.
I have come to expect much higher quality from Artbeads , and am frankly surprised they still carry them.
