Bead Tips
Bead tips are used to conceal and protect knots at the ends of bead strands and connect the strands to clasps, giving a clean finished look to jewelry designs strung on thread. Makes jewelry appear sophisticated and clean.
Standard style
The standard style provides a cup with a hole in the bottom and an attachment loop.
Side clamp-on style
The side hinged clamp-on style is notched on the bottom of each side of the sphere to allow for the thread. The two sides of the sphere clamp over the finished knot to form a small round bead with a projecting loop.
Bottom clamp-on style
The bottom hinged clamp-on style has a thread hole in the bottom hinge. The clamp forms a spherical bead with an attachment loop.
