Sterling Silver 18 gauge thick 4mm wide Half Round Wire

4mm 18 gauge Half Round Sterling Silver Wire.  Dead Soft.  Sold by the inch. Ideal for making rings with a wide band.

Half round wire is generally used for connecting square wire.  The flat side is placed against the square wire, and the rounded side remains exposed to the finished design.  18 gauge wire is great for necklaces and bracelets.  “Dead soft” wire means that the metal offers little or no resistance – it’s very pliable.  It does not form hard angles or sharp bends.  It is great for forming spirals and soft bends, as long as they can be work hardened.
