Collection: Rose Gold Industrial Jewellery

Rose gold industrial jewellery is made from ASTM F136 implant-grade titanium with PVD rose gold coating. Industrial piercings (also called scaffold piercings) are a double ear cartilage piercing connected by a single barbell, spanning from the helix to the antihelix or a comparable position across the upper ear.

Industrial barbells are longer straight barbells, typically 32mm to 38mm in length, at 14G (1.6mm) gauge. The two piercing holes must be aligned precisely, and the barbell length must match the anatomy of the individual ear. Industrial piercings are known to have a long healing time of 6 to 12 months or more, and implant-grade titanium is recommended throughout healing for its biocompatibility.

PVD rose gold provides a warm blush finish that covers the full length of the barbell, including the balls at each end. The PVD process is applied under a vacuum and creates a finish that is more durable than conventional plating, resistant to peeling, and free from allergens associated with standard gold alloys.

Frequently Asked Questions

What gauge are industrial piercings?
Industrial piercings are typically performed at 14G (1.6mm), which is heavier than most ear cartilage piercings. The heavier gauge is used to provide stability across the span of the two piercing holes.

What length industrial barbell do I need?
Industrial barbell lengths typically range from 32mm to 38mm, with 32mm and 35mm being the most common. The correct length depends on your individual ear anatomy and the placement of the two piercing holes. A professional piercer can measure this for you.

How long does an industrial piercing take to heal?
Industrial piercings generally take 6 to 12 months to fully heal, and in some cases longer. Because the barbell connects two separate piercing channels, any movement can affect both healing points simultaneously.

Is rose gold titanium suitable for industrial piercings?
Rose gold PVD-coated ASTM F136 implant-grade titanium industrial barbells are suitable for healed industrial piercings. The base titanium is nickel-free and lightweight, which is beneficial for a piercing spanning the full width of the upper ear.
