Description
Link a charm, clasp, or pendant onto a chain and lock the joint shut without lighting a torch. 14K yellow gold round Click & Lock jump rings look just like traditional jump rings and can be soldered closed the same way, so one ring serves both solder and no-solder workflows. Rings are sold individually in outside diameters of 2.3–7.3 mm, on wire from 0.50–1.14 mm (17 GA–24 GA).
What sets Click & Lock jump rings apart is their hidden locking mechanism, which lets you securely close the ring without soldering. The closure is not unbreakable, but it is strong enough for most jewelry applications, and with practice it becomes a fast, reliable part of your process.
Features
- Hidden locking mechanism closes securely without soldering.
- Can also be soldered closed like a standard jump ring.
- 14K yellow gold construction throughout.
- Round profile for a traditional jump ring appearance.
- Available in 18 size combinations across six wire gauges.
- Sold individually.

Notes
How to close a Click & Lock ring:
- Use two pairs of nylon jaw pliers, one for each end, to avoid marring the gold surface.
- Grip each end, separate them slightly, and twist to move the ends past one another.
- Align and press the ends back together. You will hear a click when the ring is securely locked.
- The ring can be reopened with effort, but the connection is effectively permanent for most jewelry uses.
- Prefer to solder? These rings solder closed just like regular jump rings.
