This thread shows this tubing cored and on a pandora chain so you can see how it fits over the end:

So I purchased 5 pieces of this SS tubing from Indian Jewelers Supply and it fits inside my beads made on 3/16 mandrels but the tubing does not fit over the end of my Pandora chain! When I measure the ID of the tubing with my digital calipers, it's only reading 4.27mm ID.

Has anyone had a problem with this tubing being inconsistent? Gotta go see if I can return it now...
