The Facts Regarding Titanium For Making Cheap Rings

Titanium Rings are a real cost effective solution for your Wedding Rings

Titanium is far superior to Silver because of its Strength

It is often thought that palladium is the strongest of all the metals when it comes to jewellery production but this is not the case. Titanium is the strongest by far and is used for making rings in the UK. In fact its so tough that designers are not able to work with it using traditional jewellery bench methods but need to use heavy industrial lathing machinery to work it into the various designs that we feature on our website. Away from the world of jewellery, titanium was used in the space shuttle for protection in space. This is why we know it is up to the job for making our rings. Its most useful benefit in this case its the setting of tension set diamonds. The high tensile strength of aircraft grade titanium sets a diamond firmly in a vice like grip. No other metal used for jewellery in the UK can emulate this.

Titanium Rings are great Value For Money if you are shopping for Budget Wedding Rings

As a wonder metal titanium has other benefits to for its use in the making of rings. It doesn't rust for example when coming into contact with water and as its hypoallergenic it won't turn your finger green unlike silver may do for some people. Which brings us nicely on to the "value for money" advantage over silver. Silver is a precious metal that is simply getting more and more expensive. Silver is starting to lose its top slot for a cost effective solution for jewellery making these days including silver wedding rings. Enter titanium as the new king for budget wedding rings. Even on price it can't be beaten and when combined with an inlay of precious metal such as gold its advantages become clear to see. The titanium will protect the precious gold from wearing away and costs you far less than an entire solid gold ring would have done.

As Titanium is hypoallergenic everyone can wear it

On a final note we regularly get asked about the scratch resistance of titanium. There seems to be an urban myth that titanium is 100% totally scratch resistant but this simply is not the case. Like any other metal including gold and silver it will scratch if coming into contact with other hard surfaces such as stone etc. What titanium is is hard wearing ie. it won't wear away as say silver would. It is simply very tough and won't bend that's all. However if looked after, titanium will last you a lifetime, and remember if do find yourself in the need of wanting a refinish arranged for your titanium ring then as part of our after sales service Love2Have can arrange this for you.

Can a Titanium Ring be removed in an accident?

Many customers ask about the removal of a titanium ring from a finger should you have an accident. Granted titanium does require specialist tools to work with but it is also soft enough to cut or stretch with the right equipment. Emergency services can deal with titanium as they can any other metal in the event of an accident. The fact titanium doesn't bend when forced means it is least likely to distort on your finger.
