Zombies, husks, zombie villagers, skeletons, strays, and bogged have a chance to spawn with armor, with a 9.73% chance of it being chainmail armor. If killed by a player, there is an 8.5% chance of dropping the armor. The dropped armor has a random durability and retains any enchantments it has.

Chainmail armor can be bought from armorers.

Armorer villagers may give players with the Hero of the Village effect chainmail armor.

Wearing chainmail armor reduces damage taken from most damage types.

When a full set of chainmail armor is worn, the set provides 12 (👁 🛡
 × 6) armor points.

Wearing armor reduces incoming damage according to two values: armor, and armor toughness. Each piece of armor provides a given armor and armor toughness value, and the values from each armor piece are added together when calculating damage reduction.

The strength of incoming damage also determines the damage reduction of worn armor, as armor does not protect in a linear fashion.

Players can equip chainmail armor by placing it in their inventory, using the item, or via a dispenser. When equipped, the armor is rendered. Some other humanoids can also render the armor, pick it up, equip it, and be equipped via a dispenser; see the table below.

In Java Edition, with the exception of the allay, dolphin, fox, and panda, all other mobs with the CanPickUpLoot nbt tag true (1b) can equip armor from a dispenser (except happy ghast), and pick up and equip if are without armor or have worse armor (except ender dragon). All living entities can equip armor using commands, like /item or /data.
