Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right end cap size for my flat leather cord?
Match the inner channel width of the end cap to the width of your flat leather cord. The fit should be snug — any gap between the cord and the cap walls will weaken the adhesive bond. If you are unsure, contact us with your cord width measurement and we will recommend the correct size.

Do I need end caps if I am using a magnetic clasp for flat leather?
Not necessarily. Our magnetic clasps for flat leather have a built-in cord channel — the cord end inserts directly into the clasp and is glued in place, so no separate end cap is needed. End caps are required when you are attaching a clasp via a jump ring. See our magnetic clasps for flat leather page for the direct-channel option. See our full leather components range for flat leather for more information.

What adhesive should I use with flat leather end caps?
Use a strong jewellery adhesive formulated to bond both metal and leather. Apply a small, even amount to the inner walls of the end cap, insert the cord end until it sits completely flush, and allow 24 to 48 hours of curing time. See our guide How to Finish Leather Cord Jewelry Ends Professionally for full technique detail.

What is the difference between stainless steel and zamak end caps?
Stainless steel end caps are tarnish-free and rust-resistant, making them ideal for everyday-wear jewellery. Zamak end caps are a zinc alloy and are available in a wider range of finishes at a lower price point, but are better suited to fashion jewellery not exposed to prolonged water contact.

Can I use flat leather end caps with other cord types?
Flat leather end caps are designed for flat leather cord profiles. If you are working with round leather cords, see our end caps for round leather. For regaliz leather, see our end caps for regaliz leather. Browse our full flat leather component range for all compatible components.
