What are Alternative Metals?

Tungsten and Tungsten Carbide

The name comes from the Swedish words "Tung" and "Sun" meaning "heavy stone". It is 10x harder that gold or silver,8x harder than platinum and 2x harder than steel. The only thing stronger than tungsten is an actual diamond. Hows that for durability?

Unlike cobalt filled tungsten rings found elsewhere in the market(which can cause an allergic reaction) our rings contain no cobalt and our rings use a proprietary formula that has been tested to be far more scratch resistant and less brittle than the competitions.

Tungsten, previously referred to as Heavy Stone, is a very hard and dense metal symbolized by a W or #74 on the periodic elements table that is extracted from Wolframite ore. Tungsten is used as the filament wire in most light bulbs because it melts at an extraordinary 6,200 degrees F. When Tungsten is processed with carbon and other elements it is transformed into Tungsten Carbide (WC) between 8 and 9 on the Mohs hardness scale. A similar formulation of this super hard composite metal has been widely used for over 50 years as a cutting tool for industrial applications. A special formulation of Tungsten Carbide has been used as well for the production of scratch proof wrist watches for nearly forty years


Titanium

Lighten Up! Titanium has the strength of steel and the weight of aluminum. Trusted by many engineers it is used everywhere. From golf clubs to even larger objects such as planes. Active wearers of Titanium feel confident knowing it is the lighter side of strength.


Seranite Ceramic

Seranite is the name for our super hard scratch resistant ceramic metal.Our proprietary sintering and pressure injection process allows this metal to be much stronger and scratch resistant than the typical ceramic product. This metal provides support for todays aerospace and medical industries and its hypoallergenic attributes offer confidence to those looking for comfort without having to sacrifice strength and durability.
