Description
Artistic Wire Large Wire Crimp Connectors are the perfect cold connection to join large gauges of wire together.Perfectly calibrated for 12, 14, and 16 gauge Artistic Wires, you can also use them for Artistic Wire Braid, 12 gauge Aluminum Wires, and to join multiple strands of smaller gauge wires.
To use, place one end of the wire that you are joining half way into the Crimp Connector.
Place the other wire in the opposite end so that the wires meet in the middle.
Use the back notch of the Mighty Crimping Pliers for the 12 and 14 gauge wires and the Standard Crimping Pliers for the 16 gauge wires to gently squeeze one side of the crimp then the other for a secure connection.
Crimp beads are used with all beading wire to secure the start and finish of the strand.
Thread through the crimp bead, around the clasp loop, back through the crimp bead and draw the beading wire taut.
Then crush the crimp bead flat with needle nose pliers or create a more rounded look with crimp pliers.
Highly polished crimp tubes can be used as beading spacers or crimps on beading wire.
