Chainmail rings 8/1.6 mm - galvanized
Description
- galvanized wire
- 8 mm inner diameter
- one kilogram of rings per pack
Open steel rings made of galvanized wire with a 1.6 mm gauge, designed for crafting chainmail armor and accessories (coifs, gloves, etc.). The galvanized finish makes the final product more corrosion-resistant. The inner diameter of the ring is 8 mm. The rings are cut, not pinched (which prevents them from coming undone easily).
The price is for 1 kg of rings, which equals approximately 1750-1850 rings. For example, you will need 2.5-3.5 kg of rings for a chainmail coif.

These rings are truly excellent. I'm weaving an entire suit of armor from them and I can't praise them enough. You have to adjust them occasionally, but that's only a small percentage.
Tyto kroužky jsou opravdu skvélé, pletu z nich celou zbroj a nemůžu si je vynachválit. Občas je musíte upravit, ale to je jen malé procento.
The rings are described as open, but it's about 50/50 and some still need a bit of adjustment (poorly cut), otherwise they're great and cheap. You need about 3kg for a coif. For a chainmail shirt, you need about 10-13kg, depending on the length, sleeve length, and the size of the person you're making it for. A good guide for making chainmail is at curiavitkov.cz/clanek1.html.
Pisane je, ze kruzky su otvorene, ale je ta cca pol na pol a este niektore treba trochu upravit (zle odcvaknute) inac su super a su lacme. Na kuklu treba cca 3kg. Na kruzkovku cca 10-13kg, hlavne zalezi na tom aka dlha ma byt a ake dlhe budu rukavy a tiez na aku postavu sa strikuje. Dubry navod na vyrobu kruzkovky je na curiavitkov.cz/clanek1.html.
I can highly recommend these rings. I haven't found such high-quality rings (plus galvanized) for this price anywhere else. I've already made almost an entire shirt out of them and I have no complaints so far. I give them 5 out of 5.
Kroužky můžu jedině doporučit,nikde sem nesehnal tak kvalitní kroužky(navíc pozinkované) za takovou cenu,mám už z nich skoro celou košili a na nic si zatím nemůžu stěžovat.Dávám 5 z 5-ti.
These rings are high-quality, sturdy, and easy to work with, plus they look great. This was my first experience with chainmail, and I can recommend them even for beginners—all you need is two pairs of pliers (ideally smooth, without teeth) and a few YouTube tutorials. There are practically no defective pieces in the pack.
Kroužky jsou kvalitní, pevné a dobře se s nimi pracuje, navíc i dobře vypadají na pohled. Byla to má první zkušenost s kroužkovou zbrojí a mohu je doporučit i pro začátečníky - stačí k nim dvoje kleště (ideálně hladké, bez zoubků) a pár youtube tutoriálů. V balení nejsou prakticky žádné vadné kusy.
They are very easy to work with. Using just one pack, I upgraded a pair of leather gloves with chainmail, and I still had a good third of the rings left over. The defect rate (incomplete rings) is minimal.
Velmi snadno se s nimi plete. Za pomocí jednoho balíčku jsem kroužkovou zbrojí vylepšil jeden pár kožených rukavic a ještě mi dobrá třetina kroužků zbyla. Zmetkovost (neúplné kroužky) je minimální.
I used the rings to make part of a pagan headband. I had to put them through acid, peroxide, salt, vinegar, baking soda, and everything else to get them to rust first. They really didn't want to at first, but after a few days, I finally succeeded :D
Z kroužků jsem si udělala část pagan čelenky. Několikrát jsem je ale nejdřív prohnala kyselinou, peroxidem, solí, octem, sodou a vším možným, aby zrezivěly a nejdřív se jim fakt nechtělo, až po několika dnech jsem měla úspěch :D
