Argentium® Silver Ball Head Pin, 0.72mm, 1/2-Hard

This Argentium® Silver ball head pin adds a flash of white metal to the base of your design. The fine gauge of the 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. Choose an appropriate pin thickness based on your design and the hole size of your beads or findings so that they will be held securely in place without wobble or risk of loss. 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.
