DESCRIPTION: High quality plated over brass Calotte crimps- sometimes known as end crimps, charlotte or beadtips. Simply squeeze shut over the knot or end of thread and join your clasp to the loop. A very professional and tidy finish.
SIZES: approx 4mm ball + approx 4mm loop
AMOUNT: 100 pcs.
To use Calottes simply thread the Calotte onto the tigertail through the back of the base hole. Crimp the end of the tigertail and trim excess wire. Move the Callotte up to cover the crimp and squeeze it shut over the crimp. Then thread your clasp, ear hook or jumpring onto the Calotte's loop and squeeze that shut. A fantastic hold for lighter weight jewellery such as floating necklaces or earrings.
