Buying a durable wedding ring for working hands<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A durable, wear-resistant wedding ring has its merits for buyers with a manual job or anyone engaged in physical labour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, hardness and durability are two factors essential for long-term wear and tear. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do traditional plain wedding rings resist wear?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Plain wedding rings offer the greatest durability<\/a>. Besides your choice of metal, a thicker band offers greater strength<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a result, light weight wedding rings lack the strength of heavier styles. To explain, we create most bands in 3 different depths<\/span>; light, medium and heavy-weight. Our best selling plain wedding rings fall into the medium-weight range. It must be remembered that many well-known high street shops add confusing descriptions. An example is super-heavy weight<\/span>. Many wedding rings described as super-heavy-weight fall below the gram weight of our own medium weight rings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best precious metals for a durable wedding ring<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Across our full range of metal choices, we advise Titanium<\/a> or Palladium wedding bands<\/a> for working hands. Titanium and Palladium will both scratch, but both are lightweight metals. Furthermore, both metals will stand knocks, scrapes and heavy wear. In contrast, 9-carat gold wears much faster and is less suitable for heavy wear. 18-carat gold has excellent hardness <\/span>but proceed with caution if you are considering 18-carat white gold for your wedding band. White gold receives a white Rhodium plating<\/a> to brighten the slightly-tinted metal. Under heavy wear, Rhodium wears away to reveal a variation in colour between the natural white gold and the whiter Rhodium plating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Engraved wedding rings – avoiding wear when it comes to your engraving<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Many of our clients choose to apply a unique engraving. This varies between a line of text, an engraved fingerprint<\/a> or even a heartbeat reading<\/a>. Consider adding your engraving inside your ring. Protected within the ring, engravings are less likely to be worn away. \"Fingerprint<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Titanium wedding bands for working hands<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Titanium makes the best wedding band for working hands. Titanium features amongst the strongest metals<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, Titanium wedding bands offer excellent value for money with many positive features<\/a>. Titanium wedding bands are robust, lightweight, durable and can be engraved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
