Fashion Hut describes this titanium as hypoallergenic and implant grade, and Ti6Al4V ELI is the alloy covered by the ASTM F136 standard, a mix of titanium with about 6 percent aluminum and 4 percent vanadium. \u003cstrong\u003eThe light weight is the everyday win: a titanium stud barely tugs at the lobe, even in the 5mm size.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLonger 11mm Posts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 11mm, about 7\/16 inch, the post is longer than many fashion studs, which leaves room behind a thicker earlobe for the clutch to sit without pinching. If your lobes are thin, slide the rubber back a little further along the post for a closer fit. \u003cstrong\u003eThe 20 gauge thickness makes the post stiff enough to push through cleanly\u003c\/strong\u003e without bending. Note that 20 gauge is a little thicker than the 22 gauge posts on many fashion studs, so a snug lobe may feel it the first time. It is sold as a pair, so one order covers both ears.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTitanium Versus Surgical Steel\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth metals are popular choices for sensitive ears, but they are not the same. 316L surgical steel holds some nickel locked into its alloy, while Ti6Al4V contains none at all. \u003cstrong\u003eIf steel studs have bothered you before, titanium is the logical next pair to try.\u003c\/strong\u003e It also keeps its color with no polishing, so the studs look the same in a year as on the day they arrive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTitanium Stud Daily Wear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does ELI mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e Extra low interstitial: a purer version of the Ti6Al4V alloy with tighter limits on oxygen and iron, which makes it a little tougher.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs titanium darker than silver?\u003c\/strong\u003e Polished titanium has a slightly grayer tone than silver or steel; beside the clear CZ it reads as a cool, quiet metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill titanium tarnish?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. Titanium forms its own thin oxide layer that protects it, so wiping it with a soft cloth now and then keeps it bright.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fashion Hut Jewelry","offers":[{"title":"3mm","offer_id":67618249703725,"sku":"ERM001-3C","price":31.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4mm","offer_id":67618250752301,"sku":"ERM001-4C","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"5mm","offer_id":67618250785069,"sku":"ERM001-5C","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0667\/4553\/2717\/files\/fashion-hut-jewelry-titanium-cz-stud-earrings-1.jpg?v=1791467674","url":"https:\/\/aysire.com\/products\/titanium-cz-stud-earrings","provider":"Aysire","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
