Wonderful for my needs.Great flexibility

I usually use Flexrite 49 strand wire but Soft Flex original was highly recommended to me by several different jewelry crafters. It is easy to use and is a bit more flexible than the Flexrite. It does not crink or bend easily and it holds its' shape nicely. The only thing that hold me back from giving it 5 stars is that is is .001 thicker than the Flexrite which means that I cannot use it with fresh water pearls or stones that have a very fine stringing hole. That one .001 makes a huge difference. I will use the Soft Flex along with Flexrite 49 as they are both top quality products for my jewelry making.

This is hands down the highest quality stringing wire. I make mostly lanyards with it. With this wire and good quality findings... Sterling silver crimp tubes and wire protectors I end up with lanyards that will last and not break. If I am going to do something I do it the best I possibly can. Instead of replacing the inferior lanyards made with fishing line and the like, which break in no time, my customers can add to their collection.This wire is so pliable and easy to work with. Amazon is the best ace to get it at the best price and it is well worth the cost.

I've been in beading for a couple years now and have used all sorts of stringing material. This stuff has very rapidly become my favorite stringing material. It's EXCEPTIONALLY strong, cuts very cleanly and seems to wear very well. I've had a few crimps come loose over the years but i've never ever had this stuff break. I've also used the .014 size which is a step smaller and not ever had any problems with that stuff either. I know their description says you can tie knots in this stuff, but the larger diameter .019 doesn't knott well for me. The smaller stuff does a better job, but IMO crimping is the way to go with this material. The coating on the steel gives some excellent protection for the cable, but if you're going to use it with anything that's abrasive I would consider using loop protectors for the ends. I now buy this stuff in 100 foot spools.

It’s very easy to use and to work with.
