6mm tungsten wedding band: a trendy unisex width for today’s wedding band


September 2, 2010

Tungsten, the main material in 6mm tungsten ring tungsten carbide jewelry is forged with carbon (carbide) at extremely high temperatures way past 2000 degrees. Hard tool steel could barely scratch a tungsten ring and even if you hit the ring to a mallet, it would cause a little or no damage at all.

In case you are wondering how hard tungsten is, let’s use other metals as a comparison.

Tungsten metal is 10 times harder than 18k gold and 4 times harder than titanium. But before that, you might have to plan carefully and make a few decisions to get the perfect pair.

You need to first realize that the width of women wedding ring is usually in the range of 4mm-6mm while a men’s wedding ring is typically 6mm-8mm. 6mm is a width both genders can wear well. You must also recognize the fact that tungsten is a pretty heavy metal, hence the thicker the ring, the heavier it will feel on your finger.

To determine the ring size, you must round up the size of the ring and not round down. This will help to ensure a better fit.

Please do ensure you get them in the correct sizes before buying them. There are a huge variety of tungsten ring designs available for weddings.
