Bright Aluminum Jump Rings — 20 SWG 1/4″ ID, AR 7.4 (1/2 lb)

Description

Bright aluminum jump rings in 20 SWG wire at 1/4 inch inner diameter, left uncolored.

Bright aluminum is the natural mill finish. It is the usual base people weave against anodized colors when they want the pattern to carry the design instead of the palette.

These rings run an aspect ratio of 7.4 — inner diameter divided by wire thickness. A wide-open ratio. Suits Japanese 12-in-2, scale attachment, dragonscale, and any weave where rings need room to sit at an angle.

Twenty gauge is fine wire, meant for bracelets, chain, and detail work. It closes easily by hand and is not intended to carry armor loads.

The pack runs approximately 5,200 rings. At two rings per scale plus a ten percent spare buffer, that carries roughly 2,363 scales of scalemail.

Aluminum weighs roughly a third of what steel does ring for ring, which is why full shirts and long panels get built in it rather than in steel.
