Soft Flex (R) Extreme (TM) beading cable provides sterling silver plated and 24kt gold plated options at prices you can afford. This 19-strand cable is covered in a permanent nylon coating that retains the metal's color and resists tarnishing! Soft Flex Extreme is also equipped with abrasion resistance, making it more durable.

As an alternative to chain, expose the wire: weave it, braid it, crimp beads at intervals and more. Available in 3 diameters, you can buy Soft Flex Extreme in Trios, 30-ft spools, and 10-ft spools. So go ahead - choose your Extreme Way to Shine!
