Sterling Silver Round Wire, Hard

This hard, sterling silver round wire, the bread-&-butter of jewelry making, is useful for creating components and for a wide variety of techniques. Hard wire is significantly work-hardened. It does not bend readily and holds its shape after forming, making it ideal for clasps and hinges. Keep in mind that hardness is changeable by annealing, heat-hardening or work-hardening. The wire is packaged in coils and can be cut to any length that satisfies the system minimum. Orders must weigh at least 0.01 ozt.; if you click 'Add to Cart' for a quantity less than this, the cart will offer a prompt to let you know what the minimum for this item is.
