How to get a girlfriend

Tungsten may be very hard and scratch proof, but it is actually very brittle. Well, not brittle as in you can throw it against the floor and it will shatter, but it could chip. So, a ring made out of tungsten carbide can be easily removed by cracking it into pieces with standard vice or vice-grip pliers. Standard ring cutters will not work.

This is not true, in fact because tungsten carbide is so hard, it is also quite brittle. In an event where it has to be removed, squeezing the ring with a pair of vice grips or pliers will actually shatter the ring into two or three pieces. In some ways this is a much easier way to remove a ring than say titanium or gold which have to be cut to remove from the finger.

The color of tungsten carbide is a very appealing light gray, similar to the color of steel. It’s extremely bright and reflective when polished, and when a finish is applied to a tungsten carbide wedding band, the gray is more pronounced, allowing wonderful contrasts for traditional or contemporary designs. The subtle gray color is also an excellent backdrop for precious metal inlays like platinum, palladium, sterling silver, and gold.

Our excellent return/exchange policy helps make sure your tungsten wedding band is as comfortable as it should be. Because of the extreme hardness and durability of tungsten, tungsten wedding bands cannot be sized like gold, palladium or platinum rings, so please take extra care in determining the proper size.

One can remove tungsten rings in emergencies with no further injury or discomfort to the wearer, while gold rings often bend out of round during trauma & cut or compress fingers in painful ways, & getting a cutting tool between the bent gold ring & injured finger in order to remove it can be excruciating. Tungsten rings, on the other hand, cannot bend out of round, & have often actually protected the ring finger from the brunt of the trauma.
