Titanium EducationTitanium, sometimes called “the space age metal”, is particularly known for its tremendous strength (greater than that of steel) and was very difficult to find in jewelry as recently as 15 to 20 years ago. There are many reasons one might choose titanium wedding rings over more traditional metals like gold, silver, and platinum. If you’ve had an allergic reaction to other metals, you will be happy with our 99% pure titanium because it is the most biocompatible metal known to man. Titanium is so safe that in medicine it is even regularly used inside the body for surgical implants, plates, bone pins, and so forth. It is non-reactive to salt water, chlorine, detergents, alkaloids, and all body acids. Many customers find titanium exotic and like to have a more uncommon option, and for those who can’t choose, Mens Wedding Rings and Bands carries several gorgeous styles of titanium rings inlaid with gold. Titanium is even magnetic, one of the properties that led to its discovery as a singular element, and it’s used in the super-strong plating protecting the metal skin of Blackbird spy planes. The bright silvery gray that is the natural color of titanium rings can be anodized and treated to bring out other colors, or electroplated with dark carbide or enamel powders to make them matte black.
Sporty enough to wear every day and elegant enough to wear for special occasions, titanium transitions effortlessly between both casual and formal situations. Titanium appeals to outgoing, hands-on people who like the idea of their wedding ring and ultra fast bicycle or top-of-the-line golf clubs being made of the same metal. Just as the vehicles and machines in which titanium is used to modernize processes and maximize efficiency, titanium jewelry is streamlined and lightweight. Titanium is safe to wear for swimming in pools and natural bodies of water, and does not fade with prolonged exposure to sun like gold and other metals do. Its combination of strength and lightness give titanium incredible versatility for design—very small rings will not break or lose stones from their settings, and very large rings will not be too heavy or clunky for daily wear. If you want a ring that goes everywhere you do, our titanium rings are your best bet.
