50 New High Quality Silver Eye Pins for Jewellery – (18mm)

Description

18mm Silver Eye Pins

How do you build dimension into earrings without creating excessive drop length? These short-shaft connectors transform single beads into moveable components within 18mm of vertical space. The 2.2mm loop at one end accepts jump rings or earring hooks, while the 0.7mm gauge wire threads smoothly through crystals, glass rounds, and lightweight gemstone chips. Finish the opposite end with a simple wrapped loop, and you’ve created a dangle that moves independently within multi-tier designs.

• Total length: 18mm from loop base to pin tip
• Loop opening: approximately 2.2mm internal diameter
• Wire gauge: 0.7mm thickness
• Silver plated finish over base metal core
• Quantity: 50 jewellery eye pins per bag
• Straight shaft with pre-formed circular loop

Thread a 6mm faceted rondelle onto the shaft, create a wrapped loop at the pin end, and attach the existing loop to a chain link—you’ve just built a station necklace component that sits flush without drooping. These beading connectors also excel in charm bracelet construction, where shorter pins prevent overlap between neighbouring elements. Add them to Swarovski bicones for earring jackets that frame studs without extending past the jawline, or use them to suspend pearl drops inside filigree bead caps for vintage-inspired cluster rings.

The silver plated surface accepts patina if you want an antiqued effect, though most crafters appreciate the bright neutral tone straight from the bag. Wire this thin bends easily with round-nose pliers but holds its shape once looped—no hardening treatment needed for lightweight applications. Pair these with silver spacer beads to create graduated dangle sequences, or combine them with headpins in the same finish for cohesive charm bar designs. Australia Beads stocks these in bulk quantities so you always have enough for batch production.
