Best Griffin Beading Cords Threads in 2026

FIRELINE: This is a microfused, braided bead thread consisting of Dyneema, a gel-spun polyethylene which is known as the strongest fiber, per diameter, ever created. It has an unbelievably high tensile strength and has been recommended in numerous how-to articles on beadworking.

DETAILS: Made in the USA, our Fireline is 4lb. test and comes in a crystal color. The cord measures .005” (.12mm) in diameter. The 50 yards are wound on a spool that is secured with a clear plastic clip. Keep your thread secure and organized.

EASY FINISH: Because this is a super strong material, we recommend using sharp, precise scissors for cutting the string. However, the thread can also be burned instead of snipping. A thread burner is easier to use and more precise. This method seals the ends, which prevents frayed edges or split ends.
