Features
Tungsten carbide rings look like steel, relatively heavy, scratch-resistant and can be combined with other materials, like black or blue carbon fiber or precious metals like gold, to create a special look. This material is a good alternative for various types of jewelery, from wedding bands to engagement rings.
Precautions
There are imitations of tungsten carbide rings that use a cobalt tungsten mixture rather than the tungsten carbide. These rings may cost as much as the real thing, but are not as durable and can cause you to develop an itchy rash on your finger or hand. Additionally, the oils on your hand can cause the cobalt to oxide creating spots on the ring.
Importance of the Binder
You always should ask the retailer which sort of binder is used. If not, you most likely may be getting a ring that uses a cobalt binder, which is not has high quality as ones made with a nickel-binder. Nickel-binder, which does not cause allergic reactions and is durable, is best.

Using tungsten carbide for rings has several benefits. They do not need regular polishing. The original polish can last the lifetime of the ring.
There is also a difference in price. A tungsten carbide ring can cost from $55 to $150 dollars, depending on the retailer. The average gold wedding band, on the other hand, can easily start well above $100.
Tungsten carbide is a very strong material, compared to the relatively soft gold and silver and does not cause the allergic reactions the more traditional metals can.

To cleaning tungsten carbide rings require little care, although cleaning is required to remove dirt, exposure to chemicals, soap residue and fingerprints.
1. Combine 1 cup of warm water with ½ tbsp. liquid dish soap in a bowl or cup. Submerge the tungsten carbide ring in the water for five minutes.
2. Lift the ring above the bowl or cup. Rub a toothbrush or cloth over the ring to gently clean any remaining grime or buildup from the ring.
3. Rinse the ring in cool water to remove any remaining soap residue.
4. Rub the ring with a soft or microfiber cloth to dry it and prevent water spots.

1. Tungsten carbide roughing end mills are used for removing large amounts of material in a quick, precise manner that allows for maximum efficiency and speed. Roughing end mills come in standard sizes both standard and metric from a few millimeters in diameter to more than an inch. Common standard sizes are .25, .5, .75 and 1 inch and available in fine and coarse tooth configurations. Most roughing end mills are made from cobalt, have three or more flutes and have coatings that dissipate heat to prolong their lives.
2. Tungsten carbide finishing end mills are used in computer numerical control and manual milling machines, as well as lathes of both kinds to bring the material to the finished dimensions as dictated by the blueprint. Finishing end mills come in all sizes with one-half inch the most common. They have between two and five flutes and can be made from various materials including high-speed steel and carbide. Other common sizes include 1 inch and specialty sizes are available as small as .05 inch.
3. Tungsten carbide ball end mills are specially made end mills with a ball end. They are perfectly suited for taking steps cuts of very small amounts of material. The radius of the end mill allows for small cuts using the tip that contours the area without interference of the 90-degree angles of standard end mills. Ball mills are finishing end mills and do not have ridged fluting. These end mills are often made of carbide for rigidity and can be coated to dissipate heat as well.
4. Tungsten carbide double ended end mills come in various sizes and variations including finishing and roughing types. There is a cutting edge on each side of the end mill, so it can be turned around once one edge becomes dulled. The standard sizes include .5, .75 and 1 inch for roughers and .5 inch for finishing end mills. Ball end mills are also available as double ended and come in standard .5 inch sizes.

Tungsten carbide rings are made from tungsten and carbide powders, resulting in an indestructible, scratch-proof metal. The metal is used to create rings, wedding bands and bracelets. Tungsten carbide rings are a very durable alternative to the traditional gold or silver rings. These jewelry pieces can more accurately be called tungsten carbide rings, however. This compound is created by mixing powered tungsten and powdered black carbon and heating them to a very high temperature in the presence of hydrogen.
Tungsten is a rare metal that is almost 10 times harder than 18-karat gold, five times harder than tool steel and four times harder than titanium.
