Trucraft – Gold Jewellery Lobster Clasps: 16mm (Pack of 50)
For designs that require extra durability and a larger grip, the Trucraft 16mm Gold Lobster Clasps are the perfect choice. These substantial fasteners are designed for statement jewelry, offering a robust and high-shine finish that ensures even your heaviest necklaces and bracelets stay securely fastened.
The radiant gold finish provides a luxurious, high-end look, making these clasps as much a part of the design as the beads and pendants they secure.
Why These 16mm Clasps are a Maker’s Essential
-
Bold 16mm Profile: This larger size is ideal for "statement" jewelry. The 16mm length is easier to handle for those with limited dexterity and provides a balanced look when paired with chunky beads or thick chains.
-
Heavy-Duty Spring Gate: Built with a reinforced internal spring, these clasps are designed to handle the weight of multi-strand necklaces and heavy stone bracelets without failing.
-
Ease of Use: The oversized trigger lever makes it incredibly simple for the wearer to open and close the clasp, providing a user-friendly experience for everyday wear.
-
High-Impact Gold Finish: The polished gold tone adds a professional, expensive feel to your hardware, perfectly matching gold-plated findings and vibrant, warm-toned designs.
Perfect For:
-
Statement Necklaces: The go-to size for chunky resin, semi-precious stone, or multi-strand "bib" necklaces.
-
Cuff & Charm Bracelets: Provides a secure and visible closure for heavy charm bracelets or wide metal cuffs.
-
Lanyards & Keyrings: Strong enough to be used for handmade ID lanyards, bag charms, or decorative key fobs.
-
Professional Jewelry Repair: An essential for replacing small, fiddly clasps on existing jewelry with a more robust and accessible alternative.

Maker's Tip: When using a 16mm clasp, we recommend pairing it with a 6mm or 7mm jump ring. The larger jump ring gives the "claw" plenty of room to latch on quickly, making the jewelry much easier to put on behind the neck!
