How to Remove a Tungsten Carbide Ring

Tungsten carbide is an extremely strong, durable metal that's become popular for the manufacture of wedding rings. However, there has been a lot of rumor and urban legend regarding the ring's actual strength. It isn't true that the only way to remove a tungsten carbide ring in case of emergency is to remove the finger. But the usual method of using a pair of metal cutters on the ring won't work. What you need is a strong grip and a pair of the proper pliers

1.Take the vise-grip pliers and carefully begin to squeeze the tungsten carbide ring. Steadily adjust the pressure on the side of the vise until you hear the ring crack.

2 Rotate the ring (or the pliers if the ring is stuck too tightly to turn) a third of the way and repeat the previous step. Continue to squeeze the ring until you hear it crack in a different place.

3.Continue cracking the tungsten carbide until it breaks entirely. The ring should shatter, leaving the finger intact.
