Hauberk 9 mm Flat Rings Riveted

Hauberk Chainmail – 9 mm Flat Rings Riveted

This riveted chainmail consists of 9 mm flat rings riveted alternately with solid flat rings, similar to European chainmail from the 12th to 14th centuries. Each ring is individually hand-riveted to ensure maximum stability and minimize the risk of breakage from impacts. The alternating riveted and solid rings give the chainmail durability, flexibility, and historical authenticity. This construction is highly valued by enthusiasts seeking a robust Hauberk shirt.

The design with alternating flat rings reinforces the chainmail and is reminiscent of original European chainmail preserved in museums. This chainmail offers a denser, more protective weave than stub-link Hauberk, providing exceptional strength. Available in natural or blackened structural steel with a light oil finish, the chainmail retains its traditional medieval appearance while offering some corrosion resistance. With long sleeves and a mid-thigh length, it provides optimal protection for enhanced comfort and safety. Whether worn as a standalone piece, or combined with darker armor, such as black chainmail, it is extremely versatile.

This riveted Hauberk  is both a functional piece of armor and a historical collector's item.

Advantages:

Robust Construction: Flat rings, riveted in a circular pattern and alternating with solid flat rings, offer greater stability than stub-link chainmail, reducing the risk of links coming loose.

Historically accurate: Based on authentic European chainmail designs from the 13th and 14th centuries. Comprehensive protection: Long sleeves and a mid-thigh length protect vital areas during combat or performances.

Versatile use: Ideal for combat scenes, film props, LARP (live-action role-playing), or display purposes.

Custom fit: Available in various sizes to be worn over a gambeson or padded undergarment.

Care instructions:

Rust prevention: As this chainmail is made of mild steel, it should be lightly oiled after each use.

Dry storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid humid environments, as these can cause corrosion.

Cleaning: After use, wipe with a dry cloth to remove perspiration and moisture. For a more thorough cleaning, use mild soap and warm water, then dry the garment thoroughly before re-oiling.

Care of the padding: If you wear clothing over a gambeson, make sure the undergarment is completely dry before stowing it away to avoid moisture build-up.
