When it comes to your wedding ring, settling for anything less than perfect isn’t an option. A ring that represents forever, should actually last forever. The problem is too many wedding bands (whether made of gold, silver, or even platinum) are too fragile, too flimsy, or simply don’t live up to the promises they make. Your wedding ring should be solid, timeless, and CRAFTD to last. Tungsten wedding rings check all those boxes, but can they be resized?

Can Tungsten Rings be Resized?

No, it can’t. But don’t let that put you off, this is where tungsten’s strength becomes its biggest advantage. Tungsten is incredibly durable, and it’s exactly this strength that makes resizing impossible. Tungsten won’t fade, scratch, or bend. In fact, it’s the only choice of men's wedding band that will actually last you forever. 

That said, the average guy changes ring sizes twice in his life. That’s why brands like CRAFTD offer free size replacements on all their tungsten rings. So if you ever need a new size, they’ll send you one. No charge. And you keep the original.

Why You Shouldn’t Buy Any Ring that CAN be Resized

Many traditional metals like solid gold and silver are more malleable. Which is just a fancy way of saying they’re softer and can be reshaped easily. While this might sound convenient, it comes with two big drawbacks:

Costly Resizing Fees: On average, guys change their ring sizes twice in their lifetime. Each ring resizing costs money and can quickly add up.

Durability Issues: The fact that these metals can be resized means they’re softer and more prone to scratching and bending. Not ideal for a ring that you’ll wear every day.

Tungsten, on the other hand, is incredibly strong. It ranks 9–9.5 on the Mohs scale of hardness, while solid gold is just 2.5, platinum is 3.5, and steel is 4.5.

Why Tungsten Rings Can’t (and shouldn’t) Be Resized

Tungsten is the Strongest Metal used in Men’s Rings:

Once a tungsten ring is set, it cannot be bent or reshaped. That’s the kind of strength you want in a wedding band. In fact, the only material stronger than tungsten in jewellery is a real diamond. 

This strength makes tungsten ideal for situations where a bendable ring could cause injury to your finger. Instead, if enough pressure is applied to a tungsten ring, it will shatter. While that might sound alarming, it’s not the kind of pressure you’d get from everyday activities like dropping something or bumping your finger. We're talking about extreme pressure, like someone using pliers to remove a stuck ring (something that’s actually a useful trick if your ring ever gets stuck). So, if your tungsten ring does get stuck, it’s actually one of the easiest to remove.

Tungsten has the Highest Melting Point of any Men’s Ring:

The high melting point of tungsten also eliminates the possibility of reshaping a wedding ring. It takes temperatures above 800 degrees to oxidise and create exclusive black tungsten rings.

In fact, tungsten has been trusted in industries like construction, aerospace, and even military armour-piercing ammunition before being used in jewellery. So, whether you’re working, hitting the gym, or just living life, your tungsten ring won’t fade, or scratch ir bend under pressure.

Can You Get a Gold or Silver Tungsten Wedding Ring?

Most wedding rings cost thousands. Ours don’t.

CRAFTD tungsten rings give you the best of both worlds. They combine the look of the world’s most beautiful metals with the core of the world’s strongest. The result? A ring that's more premium and more affordable. These tungsten rings are finished with an extra-thick layer of real 18K gold or silver, or oxidised at over 800 degrees to achieve their deep black colour. And while naturally scratch-resistant, the tungsten core is further protected with a dual layer of rhodium and PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition), ensuring a lifetime of colour, shine, and resistance to daily wear.

What if Your Ring Size Changes?

While you can’t resize a tungsten ring, you still have options. Many brands will allow you to exchange your ring for a new one, but that often comes with a small cost and the need to hand in your original (and most sentimental) ring.

At CRAFTD, we believe a ring that represents forever should actually last forever, and you should only have to buy it once. So we offer a ring replacement guarantee. If you ever need a new size, we’ll send you a replacement (free of charge), and let you keep your original ring. Considering most men change their ring size at least twice in their lifetime, that’s great value. Our guarantee also covers accidental loss, so if you happen to lose your ring, you're covered. After all, 40% of men will lose their wedding ring at some point in their lifetime, so we’ve got you covered from every angle.
