Opelon Assorted Pack- White

Easy to tie, Opelon is made in Japan and represents an alternative to Stretch Magic. Opelon is a flat, elastic fiber rather than round plastic like Stretch Magic, and Opelon is more pliable and knot-friendly.

New from The Beadsmith, the Opelon Assorted Pack is part of the Basic Elements Product Line. It holds 25 yards each of four new sizes of Opelon: .023, .04, .08 and 1.2mm.  Now you will have this amazing stretch cord so you can make everything from elastic beaded rings to large and big-hole bead bracelets.

Opelon isn't perfect... but it's the closest we have in performance to old-fashioned elastic. We don't recommend it with beads that have rough edges around the hole or inside the beads, as it can shred from wear. Opelon works well with a Fine Collapsible Eye Needle and a drop of GS Hypo Cement to seal the knot. 

Please Note: With a stretch cord, it is often a assumed it will respond like a rubber band to unlimited pulling. It won't.... please roll your bracelets on and off for best performance and longevity.

Made in Japan and is latex free.

Sold on a card of 4 sizes of 25 feet each.
