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

The extremely fine wire gauge and the small ball at the end of this sterling silver ball head pin make it a great choice for the most delicate drops and dangles. 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. Manufactured to exacting quality standards in our solar-powered facility.
