Saw Cut 18 gauge 5/32" inner diameter Rainbowed Anodized Titanium Jump Rings.
Titanium is an amazing metal. It is light weight, Super strong, and Hypoallergenic. It is a reactive metal, and colours with heat or electricity. This is not a paint or a dye - but the outside layer oxidization of the metal when we electrocute it! It is hypoallergenic, so people with metal allergies can wear this metal. Titanium will actually spark on occasion when you push the two ends of a ring together!
WE ARE NOW SAW CUTTING 18 Gauge RINGS! We have switched our titanium to Grade 2 - which is softer, and no longer spreads opens once closed. It's MUCH easier to bend - it is very similar to our Stainless Steel rings. It also colours BEAUTIFULLY, so possibilities are endless! We have noticed that in some sizes of Anodized Titanium that the colour can alter a little with you bend the rings open and closed. The colour appears to fade on the area of the ring that bends. We are told this happens because the colour is a surface area coverage, and bending the wire is changing that surface area. It's best if you don't over open the anodized rings.
We have been working to perfect these rings for several months. Some batches have a very slight burr, even though they have been tumbled for days and days. We are cutting these rings with a smaller blade, so they won't tangle in the tumbler, and doing our best to get them as smooth as possible. They close perfectly - unlike the snip cut rings, that always have a little notch. ENJOY!
Our rings are Cut in house, they are cleaned, tumbled, polished, dried and then packaged with love for you to create with!
The Rainbowed Rings are anodized in a unique fashion so that each ring is individually coloured. No two rings are the same - Each batch will vary. We recommend buying more than you need, as the next batch might differ. These are more expensive than the regular anodized titanium because we have to do the rings a few at a time, and it is very time consuming. They are totally worth it!

Rainbowed Titanium Rings
As with any of the rings I have purchased from Metal Designz, these rings did not disappoint. Beautifully cut and coloured, they are a pleasure to work with. The bracelets I have made thus far have been well received. Just ordered another larger batch. Don’t want to run out of these beauties!

Titanium Rainbow 18g
These are just as shiny as Niobium, IMO. I've only ever seen them more pastel. I'll be getting more of these in the future.
