FAQ
What is the difference between ball head and flat head pins?
Ball head pins have a small rounded ball at the stopper end, which adds a decorative finish to the bottom of a bead drop. Flat head pins have a plain disc, which sits flush and is less visible — great when you want the bead to take center stage.
What are eye pins (Pins)?
Eye pins have a small loop at one end instead of a stopper. They’re used to link components together — thread beads on, then connect the loop to another finding or chain.
What wire gauge are these pins?
All pins are 0.6mm diameter, which is approximately 24 gauge. This is a standard gauge suitable for most bead hole sizes.
Are these nickel-free?
These pins are plated iron or copper base. We recommend checking with your supplier if you require nickel-free findings for sensitive skin applications.
What can I make with head pins?
Head pins are used to make earring drops, pendants, charms, and bead dangles for bracelets and necklaces. Pair with earring hooks from our Earring Wires collection to complete your earring making.
