What is Tigertail ? When is it used?
Tigertail is a strong thin wire made from threads of stainless steel cable coated with nylon it is mainly used for making necklaces that use heavier beads. It is not recommended for light-weight beading projects where nylon or stretch is a better option.
Given that it is a wire it cannot be looped at the end without kinking. To end off tigertail, crimps are the best solution. It should not be tied/knotted as a means of ending a piece of tigertail beadwork.
We stock tigertail in silver,gold and black with a thickness of 26 micron.
