MATUBO NIB-BIT N. 363 - Jet Full Sliperit

Wedge-shaped geometry defines the Matubo™ Nib-Bit, a precision-pressed Czech glass bead featuring two parallel holes and a unique tapered profile. These 6x5mm beads are engineered for high-level dimensional consistency, allowing professionals to create tight-fitting circular motifs and textured surfaces without gaps. The dual 0.8 mm holes are polished to ensure they do not fray fibers during multiple thread passes through the bead.

Premium Preciosa glass provides the foundation for these components, ensuring the clarity and durability expected from high-quality Bohemian raw materials. As a Matubo product, each bead undergoes strict quality control to maintain uniform thickness and hole alignment, which is critical for complex structural designs. This stability is essential when combining them with Matubo SuperDuo beads to form interlocking patterns or geometric bezels.

Jet Full Sliperit coating provides a dramatic, high-gloss iridescent finish that shifts through a spectrum of magenta, gold, and deep indigo over an opaque black base. This metallic treatment is vacuum-applied to ensure long-lasting wear and resistance to skin oils. Beautifully complements hematite tones for a subtle look, or you can pair them with silver for a more industrial, modern aesthetic.

Advanced beading techniques such as CRAW (cubic right-angle weave) or modified peyote benefit from the way these beads nest against one another. The teardrop-like cross-section allows for the creation of scalloped edges or floral rosettes that lie perfectly flat against the skin. Incorporating Preciosa seed beads as connecting fill in Nib-Bit patterns provides the necessary flexibility for curved jewelry components like bracelets or collars.

Precision is maintained across every batch, with a, while the 30 pcs option is ideal for accent work. Note that while a standard package contains approximately 30 beads, the exact count is an estimate based on weight, which remains the decisive measurement for all Matubo™ Nib-Bit supplies.

For best results, use Nymo thread or S-lon D with beading needles size 10-12 to navigate the dual channels smoothly. When planning your thread path, always account for the total diameter of the needle and the doubled thread to ensure effortless tension management. Utilizing Czech fire polished beads alongside these wedge shapes adds a secondary layer of light-refracting texture to your finished professional pieces.
