How to Buy a Tungsten Carbide Ring

Tungsten carbide has become one of the latest crazes in fashion accessories for men. This is even more true when it comes to rings made out of this particular metal. They can also be surprisingly difficult to find for a variety of reasons. This metal, heavy and harder than steel, can be as expensive as titanium, though isn't as popular.

1.Establish your budget. Tungsten carbide rings can be fairly expensive, beginning at roughly $50 without stones or engravings and heading up to several hundred dollars afterward. While that may not sound like much, the fact that that price is for unadorned bands makes it high. Tungsten carbide's low maintenance and durability, however, makes the price is worth it for some people.

2.Check local, reputable jewelry dealers. If there are tungsten carbide rings available, you should ask to make sure the metal is pure and not an amalgamation. Tungsten carbide, when combined with other metals, can react with skin oils and begin to degrade. Also see if there is a guarantee on any purchases of tungsten carbide rings and if the jeweler would offer a return after purchase in case something is unsatisfactory.

3.Check Internet dealers. The Internet is a good option for finding unique styles of tungsten carbide rings, though you should be sure to have your ring size on hand, since you won't be able to try on rings before purchase via the Internet. The same questions should be asked of an Internet retailer as a physical one: quality guarantee and return policy. For Internet dealers of tungsten carbide rings, there's often an "about us" section regarding the business. Reading that section often provides an insight into the company and will answer many of your questions as a buyer.
