Why Choose Tungsten?

Making tungsten carbide your metal of choice for your wedding band should be an easy decision. Other metals, such as gold, are extremely soft, though precious. This means that your wedding band will show the wear and tear of the passage of time. A gold wedding band may become dinged or even misshapen. Your gold mens wedding ring will also need upkeep and be re-polished. This is especially true for white gold wedding rings. White gold is a combination of yellow gold and white alloys, which is then plated in rhodium. To keep white gold bright, these wedding bands must be re-plated with rhodium, since the coating will wear off over time.

A tungsten wedding ring will remain pristine and forever shiny. You will not have to worry about your tungsten band showing its age or even bending. Tungsten is that durable. Not only is this metal extremely long-lasting, it is also scratch and tarnish resistant.

Based on Mohs hardness scale, tungsten carbide surpasses all other metals used in jewelry making. While diamonds are at the top of the list, scoring a 10, pure gold and silver only score between 2.5 and 3. This is why pure gold is not used in jewelry making and has to be mixed with other alloys. Platinum and steel don't quite make an average grade by scoring between 4 and 4.5. Titanium does a little better a scores a 6 on the hardness scale. Tungsten carbide scores an impressive 9. It is hard to believe that such an extraordinarily hard metal could be so beautiful and produce such gorgeous wedding bands, but it's true. Our unique wedding rings are well-crafted and of the highest quality tungsten. We do not use corrosive cobalt as our binder, as it can cause discoloration of the tungsten as well as irritate the wearer's skin. We use a nickel binder in our mens tungsten rings, which does not react with the natural oils found in our skin.
