In the world of marine exploration, safety always comes first — especially when diving among sharks. Shark suits, also known as shark chainmail suits, are specialized protective garments designed to minimize injury from shark bites. Made primarily from stainless steel chainmail, these suits provide divers, researchers, and underwater workers with a reliable layer of protection against potential hazards.
As a leading manufacturer, RETON Ring Mesh Co., Ltd. focuses on producing high-quality stainless steel chainmail shark suits that balance durability, flexibility, and safety for professional and recreational applications.
A shark suit is a full-body protective outfit constructed from interlinked stainless steel rings, forming a mesh-like armor that resists punctures and cuts from shark teeth or other underwater hazards. The interlocking design allows freedom of movement while maintaining high resistance to tearing and biting pressure.
Shark suits are often used by:
Marine biologists and underwater researchers
Professional divers and photographers
Aquarium staff and shark trainers
Rescue and defense teams operating in marine environments
The key to the effectiveness of a shark suit lies in its material — stainless steel chainmail. RETON’s shark suits use high-grade stainless steel rings, each meticulously welded to create a durable and flexible structure.
Main material advantages:
Corrosion Resistance: Essential for long-term use in saltwater environments.
High Tensile Strength: Withstands high pressure and sharp impacts from shark teeth.
Easy Maintenance: Can be cleaned and disinfected easily after each dive.
Longevity: Maintains performance even after repeated exposure to seawater.
The stainless steel chainmail ensures consistent quality and strength, making it the trusted choice for both commercial and personal safety use.
RETON Ring Mesh Co., Ltd. designs and manufactures several models of shark suits to suit different professional needs. Below are the top types available for various diving conditions:
