Tungsten Carbide

Tungsten carbide wedding bands reflect a different type of wedding ring that has become popular in recent years. Much of the popularity of the tungsten carbide wedding bands is due to two characteristics. First, tungsten carbide rings are about four times stronger than titanium–another hard space age metal. Second, tungsten carbide takes a beautiful shine that never tarnishes or dulls as can happen with gold or silver wedding bands. If you are looking for a wedding band that will truly last a lifetime, tungsten carbide makes an excellent choice. After all, a wedding band is supposed to symbolize permanence in the relationship. What better way to do so than by using a metal that is stronger than time?

Tungsten Carbide – A New Trend

The durability of tungsten carbide wedding bands is what is attracting modern couples to choose rings made of this material. Even though it is extremely strong and lasts forever, the metals take a shine beautifully. It is resistant to the normal wear and tear that wedding bands suffer from. Fifty years into your marriage, you can be certain that the carbide band will look just as good as it did on the day you put it on your finger.

Benefits of Tungsten

The hardness of tungsten is one of the toughest to top. Industrial tools can be formed of tungsten carbide and will outlast stainless steel tools. The hardness of the metal is what helps to make tungsten carbide wedding bands impervious to skin oils, perspiration and even chemicals in such things as cleaning products. The hardness also means that everyday use and wear will be less likely to scratch the surface of the ring. Tungsten carbide does not react with oxygen so it never becomes dull or tarnished in appearance. Your wedding band of tungsten carbide will always look very shiny.

Styles and Designs

Tungsten carbide wedding bands are available in many different styles. Since they are so shiny, many wearers stick with a smooth finish band and no surface ornamentation whatsoever. The rings are machined with great attention to detail so that you won’t be disappointed by flaws or imperfections in the surface of the ring. Tungsten carbide rings may be plated with gold in order to provide the contrast in metal colors for added interest. Of course, gemstones can be added for an even more striking design in the wedding bands you choose. The ring will never lose its shape either, as can happen with some of the softer metals used in ring fabrication.

Cost

Tungsten carbide wedding bands are quite reasonable in cost, especially when you look at the long term benefits. You will not have to have your ring cleaned or polished over the years of wear. You will never need to have a scratch repaired. You won’t need to replace a ring that has become so worn as to be in danger of bending or breaking. Overall, the cost of the ring that you choose can be considered an excellent investment for years of beautiful wear.

Does anyone have a picture of an engraved tungsten carbide ring?

I have heard that tungsten carbide engraving will be faint and difficult to read, but I don’t know HOW difficult that means. Does anyone have a picture of a tungsten carbide ring that has been engraved so I can see how faint or illegible it is?
