Red Opalescent Stringers by the tube

Stringer

Threads of glass pulled from re-melted Bullseye Compatible sheet. For use in kilnforming or torchworking.

Stringers come in 0.5 mm (Fine Line), 1 mm, and 2 mm thicknesses. They are packed in clear plastic tubes that are 18″ (457 mm) long and 0.75″ (19 mm) in diameter. Tubes are packaged by volume. A tube of .0.5 mm stringer contains approximately 350 pieces. A tube of 1 mm stringers contains approximately 123 pieces. A tube of 2 mm stringer contains approximately 50 pieces.

Tubes of colors made with gold contain fewer stringers, to reduce unit price. For example, a tube of gold-bearing 1 mm stringers contains approximately 87 pieces, while a tube of 2 mm stringers contains approximately 33 pieces.

Like our sheet glass, stringers are made by hand. There may be slight variation in color, thickness, length, etc.
