Sterling silver (92.5% silver) end cap clasps are an ideal way to finish jewelry made with thicker cords and ribbon. Insert the end of the stringing material into the barrel. Crimp the smooth middle section flat with narrow-jaw chain nose pliers. (Wide-jaw pliers may damage the cord end.) The maximum stringing material size that can be used is 2.5mm.
