Chains is a miscellaneous symbol drawn from weather, astrology, gaming, warning signage, or similar everyday categories, used to add a quick visual cue in text without switching to a full emoji.
Unicode block: Miscellaneous Symbols (U+2600–U+26FF). This eclectic block covers weather, astrology, chess, religious, and warning symbols — a mix that predates the modern Emoji blocks and still renders as plain (non-color) glyphs on most systems.
At Unicode code point U+26D3 (decimal 9939), Chains is the 212th of 256 characters cataloged in this category on How To Type Any Symbol. In terms of typing methods, like most characters outside the 0–255 legacy codepage range, it has no dedicated Alt-code or single-key shortcut on Windows or Mac, so copy-paste is the standard, universal method for typing it. Regardless of platform, clicking the copy button above places the exact character on your clipboard, ready to paste into any application that accepts Unicode text.
💡 Good to know: Warning and hazard symbols from this block carry real-world safety conventions in some contexts — use the standardized version rather than a similar-looking substitute in safety documentation.
