Can a Tungsten Ring be Cut Off?

In any situation where there might be a medical necessity to cut off or remove a tungsten ring--for instance excessive weight gain, hand injury, etc.--removing a tungsten ring doesn’t pose much more of a challenge than cutting through a gold or platinum wedding band.. In addition, tungsten bands can be fractured into pieces using vise-grip pliers.  When we contacted our local hospital emergency room and asked if they were equipped to remove tungsten wedding bands in an emergency, they told us that most hospital emergency rooms are prepared to handle almost anything, and assured us that it would be no problem for them.

Tungsten rings will not crush or bend out-of-round, so if you shut your hand in a car door or drop a heavy object on it, a tungsten wedding band is likely to fracture into several pieces and fall off your finger freely.  Nonetheless, check with your local jeweler or medical facility if you have concerns.
