All our tungsten rings are true to USA sizing standard. You do not need to add or subtract anything to/from your actual finger size.

All our tungsten rings are made with the superior Tungsten Carbide alloy instead of being made from pure metal. Many jewelers offer pure tungsten wedding rings that do not include Carbide. Tungsten in its pure state is just a regular metal and does not poses the hardness and scratch resistance of tungsten-carbide(WC) and can be scratch quite easily. Only when tungsten (W) is processed with carbon (C) and compressed under extreme pressure and temperature, it is transformed into Tungsten Carbide (WC) - the hardest metal ever to be used in jewelry creation.

All our tungsten rings are cobalt free. There is no cobalt in any of our jewelry. We use nickel binder only. This is very important as the presence of cobalt can cause an adverse reaction with human body, causing skin rashes and discoloration of the ring. Skin oils can bond with cobalt, bringing it to the surface, resulting in discoloration similar to tarnishing. The cobalt spots cannot be removed by cleaning or even polishing.

Tungsten Ring is the most wear resistant wedding band available today.
Hardness of tungsten carbide rings is comparable to sapphire and ruby gems.
It is between 8.5 and 9 on the Mohs hardness scale (Diamond is a 10 - the highest).
Due to this extreme hardness, Tungsten Ring will hold its polish permanently. Tungsten-Carbide can only be scratched by diamonds and corundum family stones, or abrasive materials and tools containing corundum or diamond. Consequently, these bands can be called, scratch proof or permanently polished.

All of our wedding bands are made with the comfort-fit feature, providing optimal comfort for continues every day wear, and making it easier to put on and take off. All our bands are laser marked on the inside "TUNGSTEN CARBIDE" or "T/C". So you know, you received the highest quality ring.
