About-Cobalt-Chrome-Rings

Cobalt Chrome is an alloy comprised of cobalt and chromium. Cobalt Chrome has extremely high strength and is used commonly in many industries. Cobalt Chrome Rings are the single greatest addition to the collection of alternative metal rings. But they stand high above the competition with features that no other metal can offer. The greatest thing about Cobalt Chrome is its rich, platinum like color. This is a color that is impossible to get from unless you pay platinum prices. Cobalt Chrome Rings maintain their color all the way through the entire ring unlike white gold. Cobalt Rings are also 7x harder than platinum and harder than titanium, making Cobalt Chrome Rings extremely scratch resistant.

Solid Color, Not Just A Plating

Hypoallergenic

Cobalt Chrome Rings have the perfect weight for any wedding ring. Heavy enough to know that the ring is well-made and durable, but not so heavy as to be overly noticeable to the wearer. Having weight similar to platinum, Cobalt Rings could never be mistaken for cheap metals.

Cobalt Chrome's Color and Luster
As stated Cobalt Chrome shares the same rich color as platinum which no other alternative metal can offer. Cobalt Rings also maintain their luster, permanently. Never dulling and never fading Cobalt Rings maintain the test of time. How is this possible? Cobalt Chrome Rings are never plated, the color is continuous through the entire ring which means even if scratched the ring would never show anything but the same rich color you are used to. That being said it is almost impossible to scratch Cobalt Chrome Rings.

Scratch-Resistance
Cobalt Chrome Rings have a hardness greater than any precious metal and even greater than titanium. This hardness makes them extremely scratch resilient. Cobalt Chrome's hardness is perfect in another way as well. While Cobalt Chrome's hardness gives the ring its scratch resistance if a metal is to hard it can have the tendency to shatter, this is never the case with Cobalt Chrome.

Shatterproof
The harder a metal gets the less the Ring can bend and therefor will shatter. This can be seen in the case of tungsten rings. Tungsten, having a hardness greater than Cobalt Chrome, are slightly more scratch resistant than Cobalt Chrome Rings. However, this hardness also gives tungsten rings the ability to chip and shatter when dropped or when pressure is applied. Cobalt Chrome Rings will never chip, crack or shatter.

Hypoallergenic
The Cobalt Chrome Rings we carry never contain harmful alloys that could cause an allergic response.
