Sterling Silver Snaptite Settings
Product code: S86
These high-quality sterling silver snaptite settings are an extremely popular for setting faceted stones due to their ease of setting.
- Available in a variety of shapes and sizes
- For use with faceted stones
- Very easy to set: pre-notched, tensioned claws - the setting will 'snap' around the stone to hold it in place
- Loose settings: can be used in a variety of ways such as threading onto a wire to decorate tiaras, threading onto cords to make necklaces and bracelets, gluing onto your designs using Devcon 5 Minute Epoxy Glue or soldering onto your design
- Supplied without stones so you can choose your favourite from our range of faceted stones
If soldering take care not to overheat the claws, by soldering you may anneal the metal which will effect the tension that keeps the stone in place. Our advice to counter this is to use extra easy or easy solder that requires a lower temperature and if you do find the settings become too soft (annealed) you can tumble polish in a barrelling machine to work harden them again (which will make them easier to securely set the stones in again).
