I sell and use both the 1/16" and .045.
They do wear out faster, the .045 I use mostly without release for veil or hat pins.
I make the beads then simply cut and point the ends.

Wire can be iffy, they tend to be soft and can deform a little making removal harder.
Depending on brand/supplier they may also have surface treatments or coatings.
