About Titanium Wedding Bands And Bracelets
Titanium Wedding Bands and Bracelets are made from high Aircraft
Grade (6AL/4V) Titanium unless specified otherwise to provide our
customers the highest quality.
Titanium's special properties make it an fantastic choice for a wedding band or bracelet! It’s a very lightweight
metal, almost like aluminum, weighing only 1/3 as much as gold! Many
people enjoy this light feel because they hardly notice they are
wearing a titanium ring or bracelet at all!
Titanium is
commonly marketed as being scratch-resistant, but our experience shows
that with normal wear, titanium wedding bands will quickly begin to
show small scrapes and scratches just like gold and platinum wedding
bands. Although titanium is a very hard and durable metal, it can still
be scratched by abrasive materials like rocks, sandpaper, and even
hardened steel tools and utensils. The good news is that any jeweler in
your area should be able to make your titanium ring look new again with
a little polishing. Titanium rings look great and have a nice shine
when they have been polished! Due to the incredible strength and
durability of titanium, it is difficult to cut and shape compared to
gold, silver and platinum. Because of this unique nature, re-sizing
these rings is nearly impossible; therefore, great care must be taken
when sizing your finger. It is possible to slightly increase a titanium
ring's size by removing a small amount of material from the inside
surface, but it isn't possible to make it smaller.
Titanium
is not a rare or precious metal, it is readily available to those who
want to use it in any industry. Most of the cost in making a titanium
ring or bracelet is in the skilled labor to craft the ring from such a hard metal.
All of our titanium wedding ring or bracelet are made from high grade aircraft
titanium to provide our customers the highest quality. Titanium rings
are constructed from solid bars of titanium, which results in a
perfectly seamless ring. Titanium will not irritate or discolor your
skin and will not harm the body in any way. Titanium is used in the
medical and dental fields in surgical implants, bone screws, hip
replacements, heart valves and more. Titanium rings or bracelets are superior in
durability to precious metals such as gold, silver and platinum (as you
might guess from its uses in the aerospace and medical fields). A
Titanium ring or bracelet may long outlive the wearer.
What is Black Titanium?
Natural titanium is grayish in color and, when alloyed with specific
metals to increase its strength, has recently become a popular choice
for wedding bands. The light weight of titanium and the grayish color
appeals to many people, as well as the incredible strength and
hypoallergenic properties. Under carefully controlled manufacturing
conditions and using a special titanium alloy, the exterior surface
color of naturally gray titanium wedding bands can be permanently
changed to a rich and luxurious black. This color is not a paint or
coating that is applied to the outside surface after the wedding band
is finished, but it actually forms on the titanium wedding band or bracelet during
part of the manufacturing and treatment process.
