A chainmail helmet[a] is an uncommon variant of helmet that cannot be crafted, and is only obtainable through other means such as trading. It is the fourth-highest tier of helmet, having the same armor points and durability as an iron helmet but with higher enchantability.
Zombies, husks, skeletons, strays, and bogged have a small chance to spawn wearing armor, which may include a chainmail helmet. There is a 8.5% chance (9.5% with Looting I, 10.5% with Looting II and 11.5% with Looting III) for the mob to drop the helmet they are wearing upon death unless they are spawned from an ominous trial spawnerβ[Java Edition only]. The dropped helmet is usually badly damaged, and may be enchanted with enchantment levels 5-19.

Armorer villagers may give the players with the Hero of the Village effect a chainmail helmet.β[Java Edition only]
When worn, a chainmail helmet provides 2 (π π‘
) armor points.
A chainmail helmet can be repaired in an anvil by adding iron ingots, with each ingot restoring 25% the helmet's maximum durability, rounded down. Two chainmail helmets can also be combined in an anvil. Both methods preserve the helmet's enchantments.
A chainmail helmet can receive the following enchantments. Note that while iron and chainmail have the same durability, chainmail has a higher enchantability than iron or diamond.

It is possible to upgrade armor with trims. This requires a smithing template, a chainmail helmet, and an ingot or crystal (iron ingot, copper ingot, gold ingot, netherite ingot, emerald, redstone dust, lapis lazuli, amethyst shard, nether quartz, diamond, or resin brick).
These trims have no effect on the gameplay or strength of the armor.
