Hi
I want to buy coil ends for 2mm satin cords. What size coil ends would be best?

Hi rachna_sm,
Since you'll be doubling the 2mm cord inside the crimp end, then crimping the last coil onto it, a 4mm crimp end should work.

Thank you Dave. I didn't know I'm supposed to be doubling the cord inside the crimp
Thanks, Rachna

Typically, folding it over makes a "bunch" at the end that helps keep the cord from sliding through the crimp.
A drop of glue (super glue or Hypo-cement) adds extra security.
