Stainless Steel Ball Chain, 55ft Bead Chain with 100 Pcs Matching Connectors Clasps for Necklace Hanging, Dog Tag, DIY Crafts, 2.0mm Diameter

This arrived in 2 days. I needed a sturdy chain for “spoon” necklaces and this fit the bill. The price was right too after searching many options, the reviews impressed me the most on this one. The spool is plastic and stores it just fine. One review showed wire wrapped gem necklaces which I also do, so I knew this would be perfect for me! I will buy more when I run out. For sure. 👍

Whatever size of this ball-chain you choose, you will be very pleased with the quality and quantity of the chain and the 100 connectors that are included. I did design a way to keep this huge amount of chain stored WITHOUT the tangling that occurs when trying to dispense off of the roll shipped on the cardboard spool. I used an empty Ibuprofen bottle with two holes drilled in the top as shown in the picture. I spooled the chain into the bottle and ran the end of the chain up through one hole for a very easy way to dispense, and the other hole is to re-insert the free end of the chain back into the bottle 4-6 inches to keep the free end from dropping back down into the chain supply. When you need the chain, pull out the loose end and pull out the length you need. After-which, feed the loose end back into the bottle several inches to store the remaining chain supply so you do not "lose" the free end. Also placing the small bag of connectors inside will keep everything together. With this storage method, you will have your chain at the ready, WITHOUT any tangling.... As a suggestion, when figuring out the length you may need for a neck chain, with such a huge supply of chain, it is better to cut the length you need AFTER adding a couple of inches of length as you may find that "I wish I cut it a bit longer" will/may be the result if cut it too short. Shortening a cut length is easy, "stretching" it longer, not so much :-)

Great buy

Did the trick.

Stronger than I thought

This worked perfectly to extend the pull chains on both of our attics. I used this on 4 light fixtures so now I don't have to be right next to the light to turn it on. I can lift up the attic door and reach the pull chains. Worked out well and the supplied snap/extenders are more than enough.

Excellent 👌

After carefully measuring & cutting two spools for shower curtains they were each only 54 feet long. I have to order more to complete the project. (yes I have a ridiculous number of showers requiring curtain hangers)
