    Default Clasp with Jump Ring Soldering SAFETY

    Hello,

    I am looking to offer my pendants with a streling silver chain. From where I will purchase the chains (bulk), the chain has a lobster clasp and jump ring but the jump ring isn't soldered.

    Should i sell them with the jump ring unsoldered? i will be buying 100 approx.
    I thought to leave them without because it's easier and i read mixed opinions that if its not soldered then its safer because if it gets some tug then it's safer for the person's neck.

    But I also read in previous posts on here and other forums, that the customer buying my product later on will think its poor workmanship if it comes apart.
    Is there an industry standard?

    I find it difficult to know what to do between Brand Reputation and Customer Safety.
    I checked how it is being sold and most do not solder.

    Last time around I bought some chains in bulk i had a few customers jump ring come away, even though the jump ring wire is thick enough.

    Merry Christmas,
    Dan

    *sorry chain are about 15g-20g (different length) pendant is only 7g
