NB Chain | Chain Slip Collar | Solid Color | Custom
A chain that feels exactly as it should.
Solid, cleanly crafted, and made for use in dog sports – without compromising on quality.
And the best part: whether it's a small dog, a puppy, or a real powerhouse – with three different variations and many sizes, there's something for every dog size.
We use stainless steel instead of coated cheap steel.
No rough spots, no messy welds, no "flimsy" feel.
Simply a chain that delivers on its promises.
⚙️ CONTROLLED & WELL-DESIGNED
Each Bark Chain comes with a split ring as a choke stop.
It limits the tightening of the chain and ensures controlled application.
Optionally, you can add a carabiner if you want more flexibility.
📏 CHOOSING THE RIGHT SIZE
This chain is put on over the head and cannot be opened.
👉 Therefore, be sure to measure the widest part of the head (including ears) – not the neck.
To ensure it can be put on and taken off easily, we recommend:
+3–5 cm to the measured head circumference
Example:
50 cm measured → choose 53–55 cm
⚠️ IMPORTANT
Use without a correctly adjusted choke stop is not permitted.
The Bark Chain is intended for controlled use in training and dog sports and should be used responsibly.
This product is custom-made for you according to your wishes.
Processing time 3-6 weeks.
The power collars are made of high-quality stainless steel.
Breaking loads:
3mm short link: 280kg
3mm long link: 250kg
4mm long link: 600kg
Our safety carabiner: 410kg
The pulling load of almost every dog is about 4 times its own body weight.
----
The chains are available in different widths and are powder-coated especially for you.
There's also a safety carabiner with a high breaking strength and safety lock. This original is only available from us, as we hold the patent for chains with this carabiner.
The chain collars are FCI standard and long-link. The short-link chains do NOT comply with the test.
----
Please only loop a leash next to the carabiner, never into the carabiner.
Please only use a leash if your furry friend is very good at walking on a leash and does not pull.
We're not saying this because the breaking load can't withstand it, but because with thin collars, the pressure can't be distributed evenly and over a wide area when pulled. This poses a risk of injury to the dog.

Suspension points
Due to the coating process, hanging points at the ends AND between the links are completely normal and unavoidable. Wherever there are contact points, no powder can penetrate, and therefore no paint can penetrate.
wear
Friction, whether between individual links or even from a leash, naturally causes wear. This is also completely normal and unavoidable. Depending on how intensively you use the chain, wear can occur more quickly.
Color indication for wear
Due to the different pigment composition of each color, metallic and neon colors wear off faster, especially between the links, than standard colors. This may also apply to very light standard colors. This is normal and unavoidable.
Care
Chain collars don't require intensive care. However, it's still worth cleaning your chain regularly with clean water, especially if a lot of dirt gets stuck between the links or after swimming in the sea. Additional dirt particles can lead to increased friction and therefore faster wear.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
This collar does not require any special care. However, it should be rinsed regularly with water, especially if you have been in the sea. Salt or other dirt particles between the links can increase friction and cause faster wear. This means that a used look can be achieved more quickly.

No!
Our carabiner is a special safety carabiner. It is equipped with a nut that you can screw shut. This prevents it from opening and minimizes the risk of injury. Therefore, our chains are also permitted in dog sports competitions.
Conventional steel chains are often made of simple, unalloyed steel. This can rust , is less break-resistant , and is sensitive to moisture, friction, or skin contact.
We only use stainless steel – a high-quality, rust-proof steel that is significantly more resistant, hygienic and durable .
This makes a real difference, especially when it comes to dog accessories – in terms of safety, skin compatibility and durability.

Depending on the design, our chains have the following load capacities:
- 3 mm short link: up to 280 kg
- 3 mm long link: up to 250 kg
- 4 mm long link: up to 600 kg
-
Safety carabiner (stainless steel): up to 410 kg
This means that even with strong dogs, you can rely on this material – provided it is used correctly.
Yes, that's perfectly normal. Where friction occurs or where the links are hung , no powder coating can last .
Even with very high-quality paints and careful workmanship, this effect cannot be completely avoided – it is part of normal wear and tear on coated chains. However, the function remains unaffected.
No, that's normal too. There's always a minimal area of uncoated material on screw caps to ensure the thread can be turned correctly. We keep this area as small as possible—but it's technically impossible to completely avoid it.
Each powder coating consists of different particles.
Standard colors (especially dark tones such as black, gray, anthracite) are usually the most durable .
Metallic, glitter, neon, or pearl colors contain special effect pigments that are more sensitive to abrasion. This is not a quality defect, but rather a matter of the nature of these colors.
In short: the more unusual the color, the more sensitive the surface – but of course still of high quality.
Yes! Stainless steel is rustproof—so it's not a problem when exposed to water.
However, we recommend rinsing the collar with clean water after use, e.g. at the beach or lake, to remove dirt or sand.
This prevents additional friction and ensures that the coating stays beautiful for longer.
Animal welfare compliant:
Our chains are non-choking . They have a snap hook that prevents them from tightening – unlike traditional choke collars or even prong collars.
This means they are compatible with German animal protection law .
FCI/dog sport compliant:
For many dog sports or tests, chain collars are required , which must be long and single-linked – to ensure that no aids can be hidden .
Our CHAIN collars meet exactly these requirements.
💡 The snap hook is also allowed – according to the FCI there is no exclusion as long as the visibility of the neck is guaranteed.
→ Rinse it regularly with clean water, especially after exposure to sand, mud, or salt water. Dry it thoroughly and store it in a dry place. No care products are necessary for stainless steel – for coated versions, you can apply a little clear wax to maintain its shine.
