Cable Link Measurement:
- OD: LxW- 2.01mm x 1.37mm
- Thickness: 0.40mm, 26ga
- ID: 0.66mm
Enamel Measurement:
- Avg. Size: 2.03mm. These small enamel beads might slightly differ in size and shape.
- Spacing between beads averages 8.37mm
- Enamel Colors: Red (Glows bright under black light)
- About Enamel: The enamel beads are fused to the chain with high heat. They are long lasting, however if high pressure is applied, these beads can break or crack. If exposed to chemicals, you may see discolouring.
Recommended Jump Rings:
A) For the End Link of the chain:
- What gauge wire to use: Up to 22ga, 0.64mm
- Recommended: Link is very small. Best to wire wrap if not soldering. Wire wrap with 24ga Round Wire By-the-Meter
- If soldering / welding: 3mm 22ga, 3mm 24ga or 2.3mm 26ga
B) For the Links Within the chain:
These jump rings are perfect for sizing your permanent jewelry pieces and for attaching charms along the chain.
-
- What gauge wire to use: Up to 24ga, 0.50mm
- Recommended: Link is very small. Best to wire wrap if not soldering. Wire wrap with 24ga Round Wire By-the-Meter
- If soldering / welding: 3mm 24ga or 2.3mm 26ga
- What gauge wire to use: Up to 24ga, 0.50mm
Recommended Findings for the Red Enamel Cable:
- Clasps – 3.5x8mm Rectangle Lobster , 5x9mm Rounded Lobster or 5mm Spring
- Soldered Ring (Closed) – 5mm 22ga or 5mm 20.5ga
How Dapped Chains Are Made:
Dapped chains begin as standard machine-made chains, such as cable or curb styles. These chains pass through precision steel rolling stamps called dapping tools, which mechanically flatten—or “dap”—one or both sides of each individual link. This process adds a mirror-like shine or a delicate faceted texture, all without using cutting tools to shape the metal. Because dapping reshapes rather than removes metal, it preserves the surface integrity, an essential benefit for materials like gold filled.
During production, the chain’s link dimensions may vary slightly, usually within ±5% to account for compression, stretching, or normal wire gauge differences. For instance, a 2.00 mm link may measure between 1.90 mm and 2.10 mm. As a result, some recommended jump rings may fit more tightly than others. However, the end link will always accommodate a 26ga jump ring.
