Chainmail Helmet item in Minecraft

Present since 1.12.2 or earlier Stack size: 1

The Chainmail Helmet has no recipe: a journeyman armorer trades it, zombies and skeletons sometimes spawn wearing one, and it gives 2 armor points for 165 hits. As a helmet, this piece of armor protects your head and is the only one that takes the enchantments for breathing and working under water. This piece works like every other helmet; the Iron Helmet page explains its enchantments.
