The cotton covering gives it a non-slip texture that improves grip when working with fabrics, ribbons or decorative elements. In addition, its neat, professional finish makes it suitable for both hidden and visible structures.

Thanks to its versatility, it is also widely used in accessory making, crafts and stage design.

This wire combines firmness and flexibility, making it an excellent choice for anyone looking for a strong yet mouldable material.
