Steel Scales for Lamellar Armour, Visby style, Set of 100pcs

Steel Scales for Lamellar Armour, Visby style, Set of 100 pieces

Appearance and material:

Each scale has an oval shape with slightly elongated ends and is made of strong, 1 mm thick (20 gauge) carbon steel. The scales have a raw finish with a light oil coating to protect them from corrosion. Over time, the scales will develop a patina that will give them an authentic look. Eight holes with an inner diameter of approx. 4.8 mm have been drilled in each scale to thread fasteners such as leather straps through.

Dimensions and weight:

The scales have a length of approx. 93.5 mm and a width of 52.2 mm in the middle. The whole set of 100 pieces weighs about 2760 grams, which should be taken into account when planning the total weight of the armour.

Possible uses:

These scales are ideal if you are interested in:

• Historical swordplay and re-enactment: Make authentic lamellar scale armour to your own measurements, as worn by Viking warriors. Visby-type scales are historically documented and suitable for re-enacting the Middle Ages.
