 Titanium is now playing a major role in the jewellery market. Because of its three main characteristics, titanium is now challenging stainless steel as the most favoured metal in the piercing jewellery industry. Titanium is only half the weight of steel and can be anodized, offering a wide selection of surface colours. Not all grades of titanium and its alloys are suitable for invasive body jewellery applications.
Grade 23 titanium can be used for all primary piercing and this jewellery has a super smooth surface and extreme chemical stability. The passive oxide film on grade 23 titanium is almost three times thicker than on commercially pure grade 1 titanium. It is the oxide film on the titanium, which invests the material with its high corrosion resistance properties.
