Black Stainless Steel Push-Lock Clasp

Black and Secure

We use stainless steel push-lock clasps in our leather bracelets because of their resistance to tarnish and scratching, low reaction to other chemicals, excellent durability and ability to retain beauty for years.

The hard-wearing black plated stainless steel push-lock clasps keep your bracelet securely in place. These clasps are brushed to a matte look and beautifully carry our brand logo.

Although almost all stainless steel versions contain nickel - 304 and 316L (we use) is considered hypoallergenic.

There are various pieces of legislation concerning nickel. The European Directives 76/769/EEC and 94/27/ECC (12th amendment to 76/769/EEC, dated 30th June 1994) have some relevance to the use of stainless steel in skin contact and body piercing jewellery applications. These are sometimes referred to as the 'nickel or jewellery' directives. The requirements of Directive 94/27/EEC cover two quite separate issues, Body Piercing and Skin Contact.

Nickel release tests and clinical patch tests for skin contact show that 304 and 316L grade stainless steel can be expected to meet EU Directives (actual release rates are shown 10 times less than a maximum allowed by the Directive and no allergic reactions were found).
