aglet
An aglet (or aiglet) is a small plastic or metal sheath typically used on each end of a shoelace, cord, or drawstring.
An aglet keeps the fibers of the lace or cord from unraveling; its
firmness and narrow profile make it easier to hold and easier to feed
through the eyelets, lugs, or other lacing guides.
