Review on PH PandaHall 200pcs 18mm Silver Aluminum Open Jump Rings - Ideal for Choker Necklaces, Bracelet Chain Maille, and Jewelry Making Connectors by Kim Sanchez

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not strong like a bangle clasp

I make bracelets from recycled materials. I've had the best luck with stainless steel (or natural) jump rings. However, because of their color, I wanted to try using these jump rings. On the pop tab bracelet, I used five jump rings per knuckle. I've found two to four rings to fall off over the course of the day (clothes, jacket when stretching and straightening arms). This is for multiple bracelets (I made one for my nephew and he lost five rings in one day). The rings should snap (not perfectly closed despite my best efforts with the pliers). I suggest using them for something else that gets less traffic than the hand/wrist. The metal isn't super strong. I've found a few other blue aluminum jump rings that wear better, but the manufacturer only makes blue rings that are 6mm wide.

Pros
  • Well Organized: The container is made of plastic so you won't lose any cracks during shipping, perfect storage box for small items for jewelry making.
Cons
