Forever Metals has manufactured and sold the very finest quality wedding
bands available. ForeverMetals uses only those compositions that make sense and
post the compositions for all to review. Each ring made is one of a kind,
and many of our rings are individually crafted to customer specifications.
The increase of body piercing has brought attention to those elements that
oxidize, cause rashes or irritate the skin. Forever Metals does not sell
inferior quality rings, and this is backed up with a return policy that allows
our customers the opportunity to see and wear the rings for themselves. There
are no questions asked if you wish to return a wedding band within the return
policy calendar. In addition, Forever Metals offers a lifetime warranty against
breakage, chipping, or fracture of a stainless steel, titanium, or tungsten
carbide ring. Since scratching is probable in titanium and stainless steel
products, Forever Metals does not warrant the finish or scratching of a surface.
If you’re bored of an engagement ring 2 years or even 50 years down the road,
Forever Metals offers an exchange policy offering a chance to exchange a ring
for full value towards the purchase of a new ring. Please see our exchange
policy for details.
Forever Metals combines traditional precious metals with tungsten carbide to
create a unique piece of jewelry with a style, polish, and texture that will
last a lifetime. We offer tungsten carbide wedding bands with precious metal
inlays of sterling silver, platinum, yellow, white, gold, and copper. The
tungsten carbide portion of the ring will maintain its original polish and
luster for life, while the softer inlaid precious metals will eventually develop
a textured appearance over time, creating an attractive contrast against the
lasting polish of the tungsten carbide.
Tungsten Carbide Quality
Forever Metals composition is 84% of
tungsten and 16% of carbon and nickel. Our Tungsten carbide rings are made with superior nickel-binder alloy instead
of being made from pure tungsten or with the cobalt-binder alloy. Nickel-binder
alloys are superior for several reasons; Nickel-binder tungsten carbide is
hypoallergenic, chemically inert and therefore will not oxidize, cause rashes,
or irritate the skin. We do not use the compound cobalt as it can have an adverse reaction
with the wearer’s skin, sometimes causing a rash. Cobalt bonds with oils in the
skin resulting in oxidation. The oxidation appears similar to tarnished silver,
but cannot be removed by polishing or grinding. Nickel, on the other hand, does
not bond with oil and therefore does not oxidize.
Many jewelers offer pure tungsten
wedding bands which lack the hardness of tungsten carbide and can scratch quite
easily. Some offer tungsten rings made with cobalt binder because it is cheaper
to produce than nickel-binder carbide. We caution you against buying from a
jeweler that doesn't specify that their tungsten wedding bands are made with the
nickel binder alloy.
Commercially Pure Titanium Quality
Forever Metals
composition uses CP T1 & T2 grade 2 in all of our gray titanium products. We
found it to be the ideal balance between titanium's hardness and workability.
It can be cut off, refinished, and engraved, yet it is resistant to marring and
polishes well. Forever Metals uses commercially pure titanium (CP) that has
been endorsed world wide.
Aircraft Grade Titanium
Quality
Forever Metals does not endorse aircraft grade titanium due to safety issues
and it being an overall hard material to work with. Aircraft grade titanium has
many more inconsistencies overall when working with a harder substance and
aircraft titanium is not pure so it does not have other advantages as CP
titanium has.
Stainless Steel Quality
Forever Metals
composition for our stainless steel rings is
316L: 0Cr14Ni9Mo2. Our
stainless steel rings are not made for their durability or
their workability but they are made for their unique look. The unique look will
not hold up as well as Tungsten Carbide or will not have the light weight to
hardness ratio that titanium has. However, stainless steel does have a unique
look that will last forever. For the cost, stainless steel ring may be a
practical choice. Stainless Steel rings also offer as a great choice for
groomsmen gifts and for graduation gifts.
