Chrome Plated Steel American Bulldog pinch collar with swivel

This Pinch Dog Collar was processed with a special Herm Sprenger technique, called Chrome Plating. This means a technique of electroplating a thin layer of chromium onto a metal object. Collars that undergo this process, usually look more decorative, then ordinary stainless steel. The chromed layer will provide corrosion resistance for the collar, as well as ease cleaning procedures. These collars are made to serve you and your dog during the years.

The size of this particular Pinch Dog Collar is 23 inch (58 cm) with prong's diameter - 1/8 inch (3.25 mm), and consists of 10 links. If your dog's neck circumference is more than 22 inch (55 cm), you can order an additional link, that will add 1 2/5 inch (3.5 cm) to the total collar length. The weight of this pinch dog collar is about 8.6 oz (245 g).

Herm Sprenger company uses a different procedure of mirror-bright polishing. The advantage of Sprenger polishing is that the surface becomes much smoother and has this special bright shine. After tumbling, the chains are nickel or chrome plated. Nickel and chrome baths are monitored permanently by a laboratory. Sprenger examines the grip of the nickel layer through "bending" tests before the chains are chromium plated. This collar consists only of welded parts. All parts are chromium plated, so it increases in its tensile strength.
