Beadalon

We are now stocking the very popular range of beading threads designed and produced by beaders for beaders. The most popular type of Beadalon we sell is the 7 strand, which on first impressions looks and feels like Tiger Tail.
However Beadalon has some advantages over tiger tail thread.
First, it is softer and more flexible which gives you the second difference, which is that Beadalon has a higher kink resistance that tiger tail hasn't. This is not to say you cannot kink Beadalon, that is possible but it is much more difficult to do by accident!
Thirdly, Beadalon is available in more colours, 9 colours including gold and bright (a dull silver appearance), which makes it look the same as Tiger Tail.

Beadalon 19 Strand

Beadalon 19 is made up from 19 minature stainless steel strands that are covered in a protective nylon coating, just like the 7 strand. The greater the number of strands, the more flexible and kink resistant the thread is. We now stock five colours/effects, bright, gold plated, silver plated, satin silver and satin gold.

Gold, Bright and Silver Plated

The 19 strand is more expensive than the 7 strand but the difference is worth it. We now have the satin silver and satin gold in 19 strand beadalon. To see the difference in effect please see the picture shown on the 7 strand section above.
