Your application possibilities

These gold-plated side crimp caps are indispensable if you regularly repair or create gold-look jewelry. Use them to quickly repair broken pearl necklaces, to conceal knots in braided bracelets, or as an elegant finishing touch for new pieces. The major advantage: you don't have to rethread the thread – the cap simply folds sideways over the existing knot. This saves time and makes repairs particularly easy.

This is how side-squeezable domes work

Side-snap caps (folding caps) have a side opening through which you can insert the thread with the knot. Here's how to use them: Tie a secure knot at the desired location. Apply a small drop of glue or shellac to the knot to fix it. Slide the open cap sideways over the knot. Carefully crimp the cap closed with pliers so that the knot is securely concealed. The loop of the cap then serves as the attachment point for your clasp.

Ideal for repairs

Side crimp caps are especially practical for jewelry repairs. If a necklace breaks, you don't have to restring all the beads. Instead, you simply knot the ends again, secure the knot with glue, and conceal it with a side crimp cap. This allows you to repair jewelry quickly and professionally, without much effort. The gold-plated version is a perfect match for gold clasps and beads.

Advantages of gold plating

The gold plating gives the side-squeeze caps a warm, luxurious golden sheen that perfectly complements gold clasps, pearls, and gemstones. The gold-plated, silver-based surface offers a high-quality alternative to pure gold, allowing you to repair or create elegant gold-look jewelry at an attractive price.

Application tips

Here's how to use the side-squeeze caps correctly: Tie a tight knot and apply a small drop of jewelry glue or shellac to it. Let the glue dry briefly. Slide the cap sideways over the knot. Carefully squeeze the cap closed with flat-nose pliers until it is securely shut. Be sure to apply even pressure to avoid damaging the gold plating. The loop will remain open for the clasp.
