Description

Pinch Bails are a clever little finding that makes it easy to create a necklace or dangle!
Use with any bead approximately 5mm to 8mm.
Top loop approximately 2mm
Open bail then simply squeeze or pinch the outer portion of the finding until the pointed ends begin to enter the holes of the bead and slowly close until both points are inside the bead hole.
Also great for Swarovski Pendants & Chandelier parts.
Pinch bails are small metal findings that have two pointed ends on one side and a loop on the other side.
The pointed ends fit inside a bead and the loop is used for hanging.
They're called pinch bails because you can use your fingers or chain nose pliers to literally pinch the ends together.
The bail makes it easy to turn any drilled item into a charm or pendant.
You can use it to make a connection instead of wire wrapping.
The most common use for a pinch bail is to make a simple dangle.
Start by pinching the ends together slightly then place a glass dangle inside the pointed ends.
With the ends in place, pinch the bail closed.
Attach the other end to a piece of chain and an ear wire for a simple pair of earrings.
You can also use pinch bails to convert beads into charms and pendants.
Or, you can attach the bail to a piece of suede lace and add your own beaded dangle to the loop.
