Questions about the product 25 brass scales for lamellar armor (75x50mm)

Wird geladen...

One set contains 25 brass scales measuring 75 x 50 mm. The plates are pre-drilled for mounting on a slatted armor.
What material are the scales made of, and what is the total weight of the set, including the thickness of the individual tiles?

The scales are made of brass approximately 0.6 mm (22 gauge) thick. The total weight of the set of 25 plates is approximately 475 g, with each individual scale weighing about 19 g.
How can the brass scales be cleaned to permanently maintain their shine, and what accessories are needed to join the plates together to form a stable suit of armor?

Mild soapy water, special brass polishes, or home remedies such as a paste of vinegar, salt, and flour, as well as citric acid, are suitable for cleaning the brass scales, while abrasive materials like steel wool should be avoided. To connect the individual plates into a stable armor, accessories such as sturdy leather straps, cords, or rivets are typically used, threaded through or fastened in the existing holes of the scales.
Do the brass scales offer additional stability due to their embossed central rib, and for which historical periods or cultures is this type of armor particularly characteristic?

Yes, the embossed central rib provides additional structural stability to the individual scales. Historically, this type of armor is particularly characteristic of the Early Middle Ages and was widely used by Eurasian nomadic horsemen such as the Huns, Avars, and Sarmatians, as well as in the Byzantine Empire, Eastern Europe, and Asia.
