Riveted Chainmail: These riveted chainmail rings are made in medieval style, using round mild steel rings with dome rivets. With an 8 mm internal diameter and 18 gauge thickness, they closely match historical mail used across Europe for armor, chausses, coifs and hauberks. The dome rivet gives extra strength compared to butted rings, making them suitable for functional and long-lasting use.

Material, Finish & Strength: Crafted from mild steel, these riveted mail rings have a natural finish. Mild steel is durable, flexible and easy to work with. Over time, the steel can develop a natural patina, enhancing historical look.

Loose Rings for Mail Making & Repairs: Supplied as loose chainmail rings, this 1 kg pack is suitable for building new chainmail pieces or repairing existing mails. The loose rings give you complete control over weave patterns such as European 4-in-1 or 6-in-1. These riveted rings are commonly used for hauberks, sleeves, aventails, skirts where strength and look matter.
