Article about Titanium Rings. Learn about manufacturing!
Titanium is a luxurious grey metallic element.
Titanium, known for its lightweight, resistant quality is used
in many consumer product industries; including medical,
automotive, marine, architecture, aircraft and jewelry. The
durability of Titanium makes it very popular in the jewelry
industry to sustain a quality product. Titanium has the
highest strength to weight ratio of any known element.
For this reason titanium is the favored material in the
aerospace industry. Only slightly heavier than aluminum with the
strength of steel. Today, “light’ is the quality standard in all
fields. With jewelry, titanium’s light weight translates into
comfort. Platinum, gold and silver must sacrifice style and
function to reduce weight and costs.
Titanium being inert exhibits exceptional
resistance to a broad range of corrosive attacks by saltwater,
gases, acids and alkalis or any body chemistry. Forever Metals
commercially pure (CP) titanium is 100% hypoallergenic
and allergy free and will not produce skin irritation
or discoloration. Titanium is virtually non-magnetic, making it
ideal for applications where electromagnetic interference must
be minimized. Pure titanium is about as strong as steel
yet nearly half the weight. When added to various alloys, its
hardness, toughness and tensile strength can be increased
dramatically. Titanium’s outstanding strength-to-lightweight
ratio and its incredible resistance to most forms of corrosion
have been the primary historical incentives for utilizing
titanium in the industry, replacing stainless steels, copper
alloys and other metals.
Titanium is the perfect marriage of art and science.
When a person has an allergic reaction when wearing a pair of
gold or silver earrings due to the alloys, it is recommended
that they switch over to titanium earrings. And unlike silver,
titanium will never tarnish!
Most titanium jewelry products being sold are some type of
alloyed titanium (not pure titanium). Forever Metals
uses a commercially pure (CP) grade of titanium. Within
the CP category the most popular are grades 1 through 4. CP
Grade 1 is the softest and Grade 4 is the hardest. The primary
difference between the grades is the quantity of Oxygen, the
addition of which creates the increases in hardness.
Commercially pure titanium does not react to sunlight, salt
water or anything that the body emits.
Forever Metals composition of titanium is T1, T2
Titanium rings made using pure titanium can
normally be cut-off the finger in the event of an emergency,
though they are more difficult to cut-off than gold, silver or
platinum rings. Forever Metals uses CP 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.
Aircraft grade titanium rings normally cannot
be cut-off in the event of an emergency. 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. Forever Metals
uses commercially pure titanium (CP) that has been endorsed
world wide.
Black Titanium ring composition is our
commercially pure titanium, plus a carbon dioxide is filled in
to make a chemical reaction. IP colored titanium ring
technology colors titanium. IP colored can form some
different colors, including rose, 18K gold color, 20K gold
color, black, rainbow, coffee. We plate the ring
titanium, then we fill in oxygen, nitrogen or carbon
dioxide to form different colors.

Forever Metals stainless steel rings
Composition: 316L: 0Cr14Ni9Mo2 are made for their
durability, their workmanship, and their unique look.
If you're interested in a Tungsten ring without the carbide
composition, then a stainless steel ring has the characteristics
you are looking for. Forever Metals has crafted their
stainless steel rings with 316 hypoallergenic surgical
grade stainless steel. 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, a stainless steel ring may be a practical choice.
Perhaps not necessary a wedding band, but a graduation or a
groomsman gift would be suitable for this type of ring, which
will last a lifetime. Check out some of the unique shapes and
cuts. |
