Whether you specialize in chainmaille, wirework, beading, or any other form of jewelry making, you need to attach clasps and other components with jump rings and, as we all know, most jump rings sold for this purpose are weak and less than beautifully made.

Gauge specific tins of jump rings contain a selection of rings chosen for the purpose of attaching components together.

Choose your gauge and you'll see the size selection and distribution listed below the add to cart button.

Spacers are very small half round and half flat rings that, when closed, can be strung on a wire as spacer beads.

Elements are a selection of larger sized rings made of shaped wire (square, diamond, twisted, half round, half flat and multistrand) to use as components, such as to join two beaded elements.

If you have a full set, you have what you need to sit down and assemble your pieces quickly and efficiently, with no more digging through your stash trying to find the right size to attach that clasp. As you might imagine, I have a massive ring stash, yet I have wasted so much time carrying around a clasp, trying to find the perfect match for it. No more! I have never been so efficient -- or so relaxed -- when it's time to finish my chains, and now that's my favorite part of making jewelry.
