Are you looking for an easy threading option that does up very safely and securely? Here it is.
Quantity per listing: 1 metre w. 2 clips (If you buy more than one metre, we will cut you a continuous piece so you won't waste any length!)
Material: Brass based with electroplated coating, processed by oil sealing for a long lasting colour. Cadmium, Nickel & Lead Free.
You will find this chain, once done up on the clip, is very safe and secure. That's why it's used for connector chains on things like key chains and dog tags.
If you make jewellery for the men in your life, or to sell at market stands and stalls, or online sales, you will really enjoy using this chain as it's easy to use, and the buyer/owner can clip some length off to suit their needs if what they have been given/purchased is a little too large.
Use it to:
- Repair broken jewellery items like dog tags or pendant necklaces
- Pop a charm on for an easy necklace that can be changed according to which charm you want to wear that day.
- Thread some large holed beads straight onto the chain and let them just sit there - no need to do anything else!
- Make short keychains or fobs with this ball chain. It's what you see on so many items in the stores. You may not have realised that you can make your own!
- Make a very manly necklace for the men and teenagers
This chain is hardy and strong, and does up with a little weird holder piece. I've attached photos that show you how to attach the ball chain to the holder. Steps 1, 2 & 3 are in separate photographs.
- Cut the chain to desired length (use cutting pliers)
- Aim the straight little bit in between the 2 last balls on one end of the chain into the centre of the weird holder thing (wish I knew the name of them!) and then pull it towards the end. You will find the straight bit will slip into place and stay at the end.
- Aim the other end of the chain in the same manner into the other side of the holder and do the same thing - slip your charm or beads on first if you like.
- Finished! How easy is that!? The chain comes apart in the same manner if you just pull one end towards the centre of the holder again.
Generally a necklace is around 45-50cm for an adult. But keep any shorter pieces you may have, because you can utilise it for key rings as mentioned above.
