Stretch Magic Elastic Beading Cord – Clear, 0.6mm, 10m

Stretch Magic elastic beading cord is the go-to choice for making stretch bracelets that are comfortable to wear and hold their shape beautifully. This clear 0.6mm cord is strong and resistant to breaking even after years of wear — and critically, knots stay tied. Many elastic cords loosen over time; Stretch Magic grips firmly at the knot so your bracelets stay together. Each spool gives you 10 metres (32.8 ft) — plenty for a whole batch of projects.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I tie a knot that stays in Stretch Magic?
A surgeon's knot or Carrick bend (Josephine knot) works best. Pull tight, add a tiny dot of jewellery cement or clear nail varnish, let dry, then trim. The knot will not slip.

Q: What bead sizes work with 0.6mm cord?
Stretch Magic recommends beads from 4mm to 12mm for this diameter. Most beads with a hole of 0.8mm or larger will thread easily.

Q: Is it available in other thicknesses?
Yes — Stretch Magic is available from 0.5mm to 1mm in our store. For heavier stone beads, 0.8mm or 1mm gives more strength.

Q: How much cord do I need for a bracelet?
A standard adult bracelet (approximately 19cm) uses around 50–60cm of cord. One 10m spool will make approximately 16 bracelets.
