John James Glover Needles #12 – 25 Pack, 1/2.6mm Leather & Craft Sewing Needles Made in England

Product Overview

A must-have precision tool set for jewelry makers and bead artists, this diamond-tip bead reamer set helps you gently enlarge, smooth, and clean bead holes with control. It’s ideal when a bead hole is just a little too tight for your wire, cord, headpins, or findings—without forcing anything and risking damage.

What It’s Used For

• Widening bead holes slightly to fit thicker wire, cord, or headpins
• Smoothing rough or sharp bead-hole edges for cleaner stringing
• Cleaning out debris in bead holes (especially stone, ceramic, and glass)
• Fixing “almost fits” beads so your design flows smoothly

Key Features

• Diamond-coated tips for controlled grinding (gentler than aggressive cutting)
• Better accuracy for fine adjustments on delicate beads
• Helps reduce cracking risk vs. forcing wire/cord through tight holes
• Multi-piece set so you can choose the best tip shape/size for the job

Works Great With

• Natural stone & gemstone beads
• Glass & crystal beads
• Ceramic & porcelain beads
• Handmade beads with inconsistent hole sizing

How To Use

• Insert the reamer tip into the bead hole gently—no forcing.
• Rotate slowly while applying light pressure to enlarge/smooth gradually.
• Check fit often (a little goes a long way).
• For extra control, brace your hands on the table and work over a soft cloth.

Care Tips

• Wipe tips clean after use to remove bead dust and residue.
• Avoid dropping the tool tips on hard surfaces.
• Store dry and separated from other tools to protect the diamond coating.

Perfect For

• Bead stringing & repairs
• Wire wrapping projects
• Custom jewelry builds where hole sizes vary
• Designers who want a cleaner, more professional finish
