End Caps for Regaliz Leather
Wholesale End Caps for Regaliz Leather
Sun Enterprises' wholesale End Caps for Regaliz Leather provide the professional cord-end finish that completes a regaliz leather bracelet before the clasp is attached. Because regaliz cord has an oval cross-section (10mm × 7mm), standard round or flat end caps will not fit correctly — these caps have an oval internal channel engineered for this specific cord profile.
End caps are used when you are attaching a clasp that connects via a jump ring rather than a direct cord channel. They enclose the cut cord end cleanly, prevent fraying, and provide the connection point for your chosen clasp. For a direct-channel closure without a separate end cap, see our magnetic clasps for regaliz leather.
Types & Materials
- End caps with loops — the most widely used type; features a loop for connecting a jump ring, lobster clasp, or extension chain directly to the cord end
- Stainless steel end caps — tarnish-free, rust-resistant; ideal for everyday-wear jewellery and professional production runs
- Zamak end caps — zinc alloy; broader decorative finish range including antique and vintage finishes at a lower price point
Sizing note: For stitched regaliz leather, size up by one step as the surface stitching adds to the effective cord diameter. For crystal regaliz, the crystal cup chain on the cord surface may prevent the cord end from seating fully — work from the plain section of cord when attaching end caps.
When Do You Need Regaliz End Caps?
Regaliz end caps are required in designs where:
- You are attaching a connector clasp (lobster claw, hook, toggle) that connects via a jump ring rather than a built-in cord channel
- You need a professional, clean cord termination that prevents the cut edge of the regaliz from fraying or splaying
- You are making a multi-cord design where each regaliz cord end is terminated individually before meeting at a connector

Frequently Asked Questions
Why can't I use round or flat leather end caps on regaliz cord?
Regaliz has an oval cross-section — 10mm wide × 7mm tall. A round end cap has a circular bore that will not accommodate the oval profile, and a flat end cap has a rectangular channel that is too shallow. Using the wrong end cap type results in a poor fit, a weak adhesive bond, and a finished piece that will not hold under normal wear. Always use oval-channel end caps specifically designed for regaliz leather.
Do I always need end caps when finishing a regaliz leather bracelet?
Not if you are using a magnetic clasp with a built-in oval cord channel — in that case the cord inserts directly into the clasp and is glued in place. End caps are needed when attaching a clasp that connects via a jump ring, such as a lobster claw or hook clasp. See our magnetic clasps for regaliz leather if you prefer the direct-channel option.
What adhesive should I use for regaliz end caps?
Use a strong jewellery adhesive rated for bonding metal and leather. Clean the cut cord end with isopropyl alcohol first, allow it to dry, then apply adhesive inside the end cap channel. Insert the cord firmly and hold for 30 seconds. Allow 24–48 hours of full curing time. Read the full technique in our guide How to Finish Leather Cord Jewelry Ends Professionally.
