Bioplast and PTFE may need to be threaded before they can be worn. You can create a thread on the post simply by twisting a threaded ball onto it, but the “professional” way to thread such jewellery is to use a little threading tool. It has a hole in one end which creates a 1.2mm (16g) external thread, and a hole in the other which creates a 1.6mm (14g) external thread. You simply put the end of the stem of Bioplast into the hole of the size you want and twist it firmly. This creates a thread on the bar onto which a ball can be screwed. This means that you can create jewellery of virtually any length you want, although the threads can be a little rough or untidy.
