Composition
Tungsten carbide is a compound of tungsten and carbon. Tungsten is a metal known for its strength and high melting point, while carbon contributes to the hardness of the compound.
Properties
The material is extremely hard—almost as hard as sapphire, which means it resists scratches and maintains its polish better than many other metals. It's also heavier than many other metals, giving it a substantial feel.
Appearance
Tungsten carbide rings often have a sleek, modern look and come in various finishes, such as polished, matte, or brushed. They can also be found in a range of colors, including classic silver, black, and even with inlays of other materials.
Comfort
Despite its hardness, tungsten carbide rings can be made comfortable to wear. Many are designed with a comfort-fit interior, which has a slight curve to make the ring more comfortable on the finger.
