Step aside gold and silver, tungsten is the new boss in town. You have probably seen some of the tungsten rings that are out there on the market and how extraordinary some of these rings look. Not only do they look great on a man but they also look great on women as well although they are more advertised and targeted for the man.
Being that tungsten carbide rings have become very popular in the last recent years despite some of the myths surrounding them, these rings are all around rings and here are some of the reasons why:
• Tungsten Carbide is the toughest metal out there – Whether it’s a wedding band, a fashion ring, or an engagement ring one thing is certain, these rings will last you a very long time. Since tungsten carbide has a score of 9 on the Mohs scale for hardness, it will take a lot to damage these rings with life’s normal wear and tear.
• Tungsten carbide rings will not scratch – Unless you took a diamond and started rubbing up against your tungsten carbide ring, you will probably not see any scratches or buff marks on your ring. As we mentioned previously tungsten carbide scores of a 9 on the Mohs scale for hardness and a diamond scores a 10 on the same scale. That means that any other metal or material with a score of 8 and below does not have a chance at all to damage your ring.
• Tungsten carbide rings are hypoallergenic – Some people tend to be allergic to certain metals such as gold. Since tungsten is nickel free, you will not have to worry about receiving allergic reactions or having your skin turn green with a tungsten carbide ring on your finger.
• Tungsten carbide rings are affordable – Just because tungsten carbide rings possess all of these features does not make them expensive. In fact most people are surprised when they see how low they can pay for such a high quality ring. If a man is considering to buy a simple wedding band made of tungsten, not only is the band gorgeous because of its shine and luster, but he will probably not have to pay much more for that ring then he would if he was considering to purchase a simple gold wedding band. Of course the more features than the tungsten rings have on them such as diamonds or designs you will be paying a bit more.
Overall because of these features we can clearly see that tungsten carbide is an all around metal. Considering a tungsten ring is a smart choice especially if you want a ring that will last a very long time and still not lose its shine or have to be maintained much. If you really don’t care about purchasing a ring that will last you for many years to come them consider a ring made of another metal such as silver or steel.
