Metal Clamp Cord End for Tres Cord
Metal clamp cord end is designed to finish, hold and secure tres cord ends in a practical and professional way. It is a functional textile accessory used in garment production, bags, accessories, hobby projects and decorative cord applications.
The main feature of this cord end is its clamp fixing structure. The cord is passed through the capsule body, and the clamp teeth on the cap are pressed onto the cord to hold it in place. This creates a cleaner finish and prevents the cord end from looking unfinished or loose.
Suitable for Tres Cords Up to Approximately 9 mm / 0.35 in
This model has an 8 mm / 0.31 in cord opening. Depending on the braid structure, softness and compressibility of the cord, it can be used with tres cords up to approximately 9 mm / 0.35 in. A sample test is recommended before mass production.
The outer dimensions are 20 mm / 0.79 in length and 10 mm / 0.39 in diameter. A 5.5 mm / 0.22 in opening version is also available with the same outer dimensions. The key difference between the two models is the cord entry size, not the outer appearance.
Flexible Cord Length Without Pre-Made Acetate Tips
Ready-made acetate-tipped cords often limit the user to fixed lengths. This can be restrictive for workshops and manufacturers working with different sizes, garment models, bag designs or custom projects. With this clamp cord end, the cord can be cut to the required length and secured directly inside the metal end cap.
This gives the user more production flexibility. The same roll or bundle of tres cord can be used for different products and different lengths. Instead of keeping multiple ready-made cord lengths in stock, manufacturers can cut and finish the cord as needed.
Clean Finish Without Extra Cord Tip Processing
This metal clamp cord end is a practical alternative to acetate cord tips. The cut cord end is hidden inside the capsule, while the clamp teeth help secure the cord in place. This provides a neat, finished and professional look.
It is especially useful for hood cords, drawstrings, bag cords, sportswear, outerwear, footwear accessories, promotional textiles and decorative cord details. Although it is a small component, it improves the perceived quality of the finished product.
Helps Save Time, Stock and Production Cost
This clamp cord end can help reduce the need for pre-made acetate-tipped cords. Manufacturers can purchase cord in rolls, bundles or bulk lengths and cut it according to each product requirement. This helps reduce stock complexity and minimizes the risk of unused cord lengths.
For small workshops, bag makers, garment producers and accessory designers, this brings practical cost-saving benefits. It can reduce waste, shorten preparation time and make cord usage more efficient across different product lines.
