Bracelets · Stainless Steel
A bracelet is the piece customers tighten, drop and lose, so the closure matters as much as the design. We specify internal length, closure type and the metal weight of the run.
Range
MOQ 50 pcs per design for stainless steel. Length or diameter on every spec line.
A solid 316L stainless steel Cuban link bracelet, 5–12 mm. Waterproof, tarnish-free and heavy — a men's bracelet with the links soldered closed so it survives the wrist.
A hinged 316L stainless steel bangle with a concealed clasp. It slips on one-handed, closes to a clean line, and takes engraving inside the band. Waterproof and tarnish-free.
A 316L stainless steel bead bracelet on a fine chain. Polished beads that catch the light, no stones, no tarnish and no green skin — a waterproof everyday piece.
Bracelets
Bracelet returns split almost evenly between two causes: the length was wrong for the wrist, and the closure opened. Both are decided on the drawing, before a single piece is cast, which is why this page leads with measurements rather than photographs.
Length depends on the construction. A chain bracelet needs 2–3 cm of slack to hang properly and typically runs 16–19 cm; a rigid bangle has to pass over the knuckles and is specified by internal diameter, usually 55–65 mm. In stainless steel the same design specified as a bangle rather than a chain uses noticeably more metal, so the two are quoted as separate builds rather than variations of one price.
Material
| Fact | Detail |
|---|---|
| Water resistance | No tarnish or green marking; salt water and sweat resistant |
| Magnet test | Unreliable on finished pieces — worked 316L reads slightly magnetic |
| Plating | PVD in a vacuum chamber, ion plating for colour, electroplating in a tank |
| Coating thickness | Stated in microns on the quotation, per item |
| Construction | How we specify it |
|---|---|
| Chain bracelet | 16–19 cm internal, 2–3 cm of slack so it hangs rather than grips |
| Rigid bangle | Internal diameter 55–65 mm — it must clear the knuckles, not the wrist |
| Open cuff | Gap set to your spec; brass and steel hold shape better than silver |
| Adjustable slider | Roughly 3 cm of range from one size; the cheapest way to skip a size run |
