Product Specifications

Why Choose Our Tungsten Ring Blanks?

• Exceptional Scratch Resistance: Tungsten carbide is one of the hardest metals used in jewelry, offering near scratch-proof durability that's perfect for everyday wear and active lifestyles.
• Unique Faceted Texture: The modern faceted design provides a brilliant, light-catching texture that adds depth and character to your finished piece.
• Wide Inlay Channel: The generous 4mm channel is our most popular size, providing the perfect canvas to showcase the intricate beauty of your crushed opal or other inlay materials.
• Comfort & Heft: Tungsten has a satisfying weight and is finished with a smooth comfort-fit interior, giving the final ring a substantial, high-quality feel.

Important Crafting Instructions

• EXTREME HARDNESS: Tungsten Carbide is extremely hard, which means it cannot be resized. Ensure correct sizing before purchase.
• FINISHING YOUR INLAY: Due to its scratch-resistance, the tungsten itself is difficult to sand. Focus on carefully sanding your inlay material flush with the edges of the channel. We recommend using tape to protect the faceted finish.
• DURABLE BUT BRITTLE: While incredibly scratch-resistant, tungsten carbide can be brittle. A sharp impact against a very hard surface (like being dropped on concrete) can cause it to crack or shatter.

Creative Applications

• Crushed Opal Rings: The 4mm channel is the ultimate canvas for creating a bold crushed opal inlay. The dark, textured metal makes every color of our opal ring supplies pop with incredible vibrancy.
• Wood & Meteorite Inlays: Create a rugged yet sophisticated wedding band by pairing the faceted tungsten with an inlay of exotic wood, meteorite, or antler.
• Glow Rings: The wide channel is ideal for showcasing glow powders mixed with other materials, creating a ring with a stunning daytime look and a secret nighttime glow.
