Argentium® Silver Ball Head Pin, 0.40mm, 1/2-Hard

The fine gauge of this Argentium® Silver ball head pin makes it ideal for creating drops, dangles and other components. Ball head pins provide a decorative, bead-like end (or starting point) for the components you make with them. Simply choose a head size larger than the hole in your bead or other finding. The most popular choice for most applications, 1/2-hard pins stand up well in most jewelry styles and still allow the wire to be formed as needed—then hold their shape reasonably well. Made with a touch of germanium, Argentium presents a bright-white color that is closer to fine silver than traditional sterling, yet is highly resistant to firescale and less likely to tarnish under most conditions. It welds flawlessly and is ideal for fusing techniques. All Argentium is guaranteed by Argentium International Ltd. Your customers will appreciate the value and convenience of brighter-white sterling silver designs that resist tarnishing and keep on shining. Manufactured to exacting quality standards in our solar-powered facility.
