TITANIUM
Strength and durability
One of titanium’s most-touted advantages is its durability. While gold and silver jewelry scratches easily from daily wear, titanium is one of the strongest and most durable metals that can be formed into jewelry. At three times the strength of steel, titanium jewelry can withstand almost any adverse conditions. The element is a 6.5 on the Mohs scale of hardness, which measures how easy or difficult a material is to scratch. (A diamond ranks at the top of the Mohs scale, at a 10.)
Scratch Resistant
Another positive quality of titanium is that it is highly scratch resistant compared to gold or platinum. While titanium can be scratched by exposure to hostile conditions (i.e. sanding, grinding), normal wear should not cause noticeable scratching.
Lightweight
Titanium jewelry are incredibly strong and lightweight when compared to jewelry made of other metals, such as gold and platinum. In fact, because of its tremendous strength to weight ratio, titanium is used throughout the aerospace industry to construct critical aircraft and spacecraft parts. A typical jetliner can contain over 1 ton of titanium parts!
Corrosion Resistant
Titanium jewelry are extremely resistant to corrosive fluids, such as solvents and sweat produced by the human body. As a result, titanium lasts far longer than similar gold or platinum jewelry that has been exposed to normal wear.
Allergies/Reactions
Those with sensitive skin usually find they can easily wear titanium. Jewelry allergies usually occur because different metals are mixed to make an item hard--for example, nickel is commonly mixed with silver and gold. The skin reacts with these added alloys, leading to allergies or, in some cases, leaving a green or blackish tint on skin. Titanium needs no other alloys combined with it to harden into a piece of jewelry, and titanium on its own won't react with any substances the body emits, lessening the chance of a reaction.
TUNGSTEN
Tungsten is the only exotic metal that can be permanently polished.
Tungsten jewelry are the most wear resistant jewelry available on the planet.
Tungsten is about 10 times harder than 18K Gold, 5 times harder than tool steel, and 4 times harder than titanium.
Tungsten measures between 8 and 9 on the Mohs hardness scale. (Diamonds are a 10 - the highest.)
Due to their extreme hardness, Tungsten jewelry will hold their shape and shine longer than any jewelry on the market.
Tungsten jewelry will NOT bend
To achieve the incredible polish, diamond abrasives and poly crystalline diamond tools are used to polish Tungsten
