PKINF-207 R-Shaped Jewelry Hanging Wires are high heat-resistant wires with a circular loop and two legs resembling an "R" or a cotter pin. They are used for embedding into small ceramic pieces to create ready-made hanging loops.
Instructions for Use
-
Embed in greenware: Press the two legs of the R-shaped wire into the wet clay of small ceramic pieces (such as earrings, necklace pendants, or small decorative items) during the shaping process, leaving the circular loop exposed above the clay surface.
-
Fire with the piece: Allow the greenware with the embedded wire to dry completely, then fire it in the kiln as usual. The ceramic clay will shrink and permanently secure the R-wire's legs after high-temperature firing.
-
Use for hanging or stringing: The exposed circular loop can be used to hang the piece with S-hooks during glaze firing, or to string necklaces, earring hooks, and keychains immediately after firing.
