Technology TUNGSTEN CARBIDE
Tungsten
Magnum rings are the only
rings that have been made
to last a lifetime. These
rings are highly scratch resistant
and to hold the original tungsten
magnum finish for life.
Tungsten
carbide can be classified
as a true innovative breakthrough
in the jewelry industry.The
main advantage that tungsten
carbide holds over these other
metals is that its virtually
impossible to scratch.
Also,
tungsten carbide is a much
heavier and denser metal,
and more expensive.
Like
gold, silver and platinum,
tungsten is an element #74.Tungsten
is not man made but comes
from nature.Tungsten is one
of the main elements we have
used in the development of
our civilization.Without tungsten,
we would not have the incandescent
light bulb.The tungsten filament
used inside these bulbshas
the toughness and resilience
that no other metal has. In
1922 the Germans developed
tungsten carbide as the material
used in making better cutting
tool bits for precision milling
and for the cutting of steel
parts.
*Tungsten
carbide is 5 times stronger
than steel
*Tungsten
carbide is 20 times stronger
than aluminum
*Tungsten
carbide is 150 times stronger
than plastic
Tungsten
has the highest metlting point
of all the elements.It melts
at 3,420 degrees centigrade
and boils at 5,700 degrees
centigrade.
Tungsten
is processed with carbon and
ground into powder.The mixed
metal powder is then compressed
into high pressure molds,
at extremely high temperatures,
to form a ring (a new mold
needs to be made for each
finger size). The ring is
then fired in an oxygen-free
oven at an astounding 2400
degrees.The ring now has to
be ground, cut and shaped
using very expensive diamond
tooling.This process is similar
to the one used in cutting
and polishing of rough diamonds.The
result is a solid metal of
extraordinary
hardness and durability.
Our
tungsten carbide jewelry,will
not harm your skin .all the
precision polishing, or jewelry
polishes the inside of the
very pretty, so you feel very
comfortable together. never
a very hard metal and damage
your skin.
Tungsten
jewelry requires very little
care. soft cloth will bring
out the original bright finish
on these jewellery . Avoid
