tungsten wedding ring
[Page 1 of 1] If you're a groom after a wedding ring that will permanently maintain its shine and look just like it did on the day your wife first slipped it on your ring finger, tungsten makes for a great - and economical - choice. That said, despite their low price point and cool look, tungsten wedding rings have some drawbacks. FYI - your bride's diamond engagement ring won't be tungsten Tungsten is not traditionally used as a material for use in an engagement ring. Nothing prevents the groom, however, from wearing a non-matching tungsten wedding band. What is Tungsten? Tungsten comes from the Swedish language meaning heavy metal. And yup - tungsten is heavy. Unlike white or yellow gold, tungsten is never going to scratch nor tarnish. Companies use tungsten in metal working, mining and oil exploration. Nuff said. Tungsten is about ten times harder than 18k gold. Because tungsten rings are so tough, it makes it difficult for jewelers to use it. Pure tungsten is not typically used in wedding rings, but rather tungsten carbide. This is because elemental tungsten rings have been known to crack when dropped and are far less durable than tungsten carbide. Unfortunately, even tungsten carbide rings are not indestructible. Tungsten can't be resized if you gain 30 pounds during married life and can't be engraved with an emotionally-charged saying. What you see in the store is what you'll get. Tungsten rings often come with an inlay - that is to say - a strip of yellow gold in the middle of the ring. Look for them at your local jewelry store or online. Perhaps the best part about tungsten wedding rings, aside from the perma-shine and their potential for highly unique wedding band styles, is the price. Tungsten wedding rings can be had for less than $200, and even less than $100. And while you're bride isn't going to want to have a tungsten wedding ring to match yours nor are you going to even be able to find a decent looking tungsten and diamond engagement ring, of the alternative metals to platinum and gold, tungsten is right up there.

tocoy tungsten
To make wedding rings, FOR these years fast growing world tungsten users ,China¡¯s tungsten consumption is expected to reach 58% in 2010, up from 57% last year, making it the biggest consumer in the country, state-run metals research company Beijing Antaike said an industry forum in Beijing last week. Based on Antaike¡¯s estimates, in 2009, the hard alloy sector consumed 14,504 mt of tungsten. It forecast tungsten consumption by the local hard alloy sector to grow 8% this year, reaching 15,660 mt, Meanwhile, China¡¯s specialty steel sector will be the second-largest tungsten consumer, consuming 5,907 mt in 2010, up from 5,791 mt last year. This would account for 22% of China¡¯s national tungsten consumption this year.

Your brides ring can be tungsten nowadays. Sites like www.tunsgstenworld.com have womens sizes we are shopping around for one now, they seem to have a good selection compared to others we have seen so far.

I have learned (the hard way) that Tungsten Carbide is a hard metal - so hard it is BRITTLE. You MUST be careful to not drop your Tungsten Carbide wedding band on the floor - it could crack in half like the photo (or my band) : ( I found a site on a similar, from what I gather so far, metal called SK Cobalt. From what I read from the creators (www.cartech.com) and the bridal designer (www.scottkay.com) it seems like the perfect solution. Wish I knew anout this 4 months ago! Steven

i am looking into these ceremic rings. does anyone knoe anything about them?
mhmm
Why are people talking about titanium on here? This is a Tungsten article. Tungsten is much harder than gold, platinum, OR titanium. Titaniu, WILL marr and scratch and look old very quickly. You have to be okay with that look. It basically takes on a new look. Tungsten however, is much harder, and is very resistent to scratching.
Happy Groom
News Flash...You CAN engrave tungsten carbide rings! I got mine engraved on the spot from www.tungstenworld.com.

contrary to what it says here, tungsten rings do tarnish. I had mine in salt water and it turned brown. it would not buff out again. Only a diamond buff will polishe it.

I am pretty sure Tungsten is pretty legit. My friend just got married and has a tungsten ring and he was demonstrating just how un-scratchable it is. We were at a restaurant and he took a pretty hefty knife and wacked it really hard several times. There was not a single scratch on it. I was really impressed. He said he never takes it off when working out and it still does not have a scratch. I was impressed.
Ryan
I actually bought a Tungsten Ring at www.ring-ninja.com they engraved it, it's held up awesome, I'm a fireman so I work with my hands all the time. Check them out, can't beat their prices and their lifetime warranty is great.

I didn't know that a pure tungsten is not typically used in wedding rings,and its important to know that elemental tungsten rings have been known to crack when dropped and are far less durable than tungsten carbide.

Very interesting!

I gots a plastic. My ho is cheap, yo. I ain't leaving my wife for her now!!

I am very disappointed in the durability of my titatnium ring. I have a simple, 5mm, polished, domed titanium ring. After only 3 weeks of wear, it looks like it could be 20 years old. I work in an office, so its not like I'm abusing it working on a construction site swinging hammers or laying bricks. Forget about wearing it to the gym or doing work around the house...after only 3 workouts the bottom side is ruined from gripping barbells and dumbbells. With my exerience, I would not recommend titatium. I am waiting on delivery of a similar tungsten ring to give that a shot.
Ancalagon
Another thing to remember with Titanium is that it is chemically inert. It will not react with your body. That is important for the small number of men, like me, who are allergic to nickel. In the US, nickel is still used in many precious metal alloys because it is cheap and strong. White Gold and Tungsten Carbide use nickel, as do lower grades of Yellow Gold. That leaves Platinum, high-kt Yellow Gold, or White Gold made with Platinum instead of Nickel, if you can afford them. Or Titanium.
AT
I've also been told that Titanium bands can NOT be engraved by several jewelers. So something else to keep in mind.
But what you don't say in this article is whether you would go with titanium over platinum. I don't like the darker hues of tungsten rings and they are pretty heavy. But titanium can be on par colour wise with platinum. So saying that you would stay away from titanium doesn't really help me all that much.
