Why Choose Our Bracelet Connectors?

Sizes and cord compatibility

Whether your project uses a slim 2mm elastic cord or a chunky 4mm braided leather, our connector range covers the sizes you need. The TC1 and TC3 series are best suited to standard 3mm and 4mm cord, while the TC4 and TC5 series work well with 2mm to 3mm round leather cord and finer stringing materials. For very specific applications, custom inner diameters can be produced on request. Contact our team if you need a size that is not listed.

Colours and finishes

Our bracelet connectors are available in a wide colour palette including gold, silver, rose gold, stainless steel, gun black, red, brown, beige, blue and grey. The TC3 series also offers two tone plated finishes such as black with gold, black with silver, brown with gold and grey with silver, which are popular for masculine and unisex bracelet ranges. This range of finishes lets you match a single connector to almost any leather cord colour in our leather cords collection.

Custom designs and OEM production

Beyond the 19 standard variants, we offer OEM and private label production on bracelet connectors. This includes custom finishes, custom inner diameters and logo engraving for brand identity, which is particularly useful for jewellery brands scaling their own ready made leather bracelet collections. Minimum order quantities apply for custom work.

Secure closure and reliable magnets

Where magnetic closure is used, our connectors are built with strong neodymium magnets that keep the bracelet firmly closed during daily wear. Interlocking rims align the two halves for a smooth close, and the magnet strength is calibrated to the weight of typical leather cord and beaded bracelet designs.

Corrosion resistance and durability

The stainless steel variants (TC4 Steel, TC5 Steel) are corrosion resistant and hypoallergenic, making them suitable for sensitive skin and daily wear. The zamak and plated variants keep colour consistency over time when cared for correctly, avoiding water exposure and harsh cleaning chemicals.
