Hi Joanna:

    This issue came up for me a while ago and so, I am forwarding the
    reply I got from Beadalon. I don't string on 19 strand Beadalon as I
    find the drape and wear of 49 strand to be better. According to
    Beadalon, many people (me included) squeeze the crimper too
    hard...this breaks the Beadalon, but you only usually find out after
    the customer has purchased the piece and it has broken while they're
    wearing it. Quite a few people wrote tom me and told of how they
    never had any problems anymore with crimping, hopefully, you will
    have a similar experience. 

Good Luck
Kim
