Description
- Galvanized steel is mild steel with a zinc layer on its surface. The zinc prevents rusting even if the metal is scratched, however a powdery white corrosion will appear if it gets wet. The metal will turn from a shiny silver to a dull gray over time. Galvanized steel is magnetic.
- This wire is stronger than standard hardware store galvanized steel wire.
- There are approximately 400 rings per bag for 14ga, 600 rings per bag for 16ga.
These rings are perfect for making re-enactment armor (LARPing). Steel is very strong and can take a hit. It is also much heavier than aluminium. The rings do tend to be tougher to bend, so we recommend using a strong set of pliers to do your weaving. Can be weaved into any pattern given you pick the correct aspect ratio.
