U Tips (spiral bone tips) 3/16 in (5mm)

Use these U tips to cap the ends of hoop wire 50-8404-05 (5mm hoop steel) in order to create corset bones. Note: these tips don't have crimping, so may be a bit more difficult to set neatly.

Made of aluminum they are relatively easy to apply using two pairs of needle nose pliers.

Save when you buy 1 gross. 

Note: 5mm is smaller than 1/4". The grid in the photo is made of 1/4" squares.
