* Tungsten Rings are the most wear-resistant rings available.

* Tungsten is about 10 times harder than 18K Gold, 5 times harder than tool steel, and 4 times harder than titanium. Tungsten measures between 8 and 9 on the Mohs hardness scale. (Diamonds are a 10 – the highest.)

* Due to their extreme hardness, Tungsten Rings will hold their shine longer than any ring on the market. Becuase of this, Tungsten rings have been referred to as “Permanently Polished Rings.”

* Tungsten rings will NOT bend.

* In the event of an emergency, Tungsten rings can be removed by a medical professional.

* Each Tungsten ring is individually hand-crafted using assorted diamond abrasives and polycrystalline diamond tooling.

* Our Tungsten rings are cobalt-free. This means they are made of top quality materials that will not irratate your skin.

Making Tungsten Rings

Tungsten with carbon and other elements are ground into a powder and then compressed with high heat and pressure dies to form a ring blank.

The blank is then fired in an oxygen-free furnace at 6,200° Fahrenheit (3450° Celsius). This process, called sintering, creates the hardest metal alloy used in making jewelry.

The ring is then cut and shaped using diamond tools with up to 40 total separate steps required for completion. The cutting and shaping of a tungsten ring is similar in many ways to the cutting and polishing of a rough diamond.

Precious metal Inlay rings with gold, silver or platinum are created by grinding a channel in the center of the ring and precisely “swedging” the metal into the channel under extreme pressure.

The ring is then skilfully polished with diamond polishing tools and wheels creating a permanent luster and polish not possible with other metals.

A Tungsten Carbide ring will remain polished forever, and is virtually impossible to scratch. It is a unique metal that epitomizes today’s technologically advanced man more than any other
