Hypoallergenic black PVD coated surgical steel hinged segment rings in 0.8mm, 1mm and 1.2mm gauge (thickness) with 5mm, 6mm, 8mm, 10mm and 12mm internal diameters.

Hinged segment rings close the same way as standard segment rings but with one end hinged to the ring they aren't quite as fiddly as you only need to click one end into place. Often the segment does need to be guided into place. Holding the segment between your thumb and index finger and the ring part with your other hand is usually the easiest way to do this. Don't worry if it goes passed the ring instead of clicking in, it will go back into the right place without doing any harm.

Gauge (help)

0.8mm (20 gauge), 1mm (18 gauge) or 1.2mm (16 gauge)

Material

Black PVD coated 316L surgical steel

Packaging

Ideal for

Ear lobe, tragus, helix (upper ear)

Internal diameter
The sizes listed are for the internal diameter of the hinged segment rings so if you measure out from your piercing you should get a good idea of how each size would sit.

Gauge (ring thickness)
0.8mm/20 gauge (the same thickness as Blomdahl titanium and Studex Sensitive earrings) or 1mm/18 gauge hinged segment rings are good if your piercings have shrunk or were originally pierced with a smaller size. 1.2mm/16 gauge is the standard size ears are pierced with.
Please note: The hinged part is not thinner than the rest of the ring.

Sleeping with this in is a no go! For something so small it can hurt. Unfortunately this really made my ear swell up after one night. I love this hoop but can only have it in for short periods of time. (Strange when I sleep with a full barbell cuff in my helix most nights)

So comfortable I haven't taken them out in weeks. Easy to un-clip and add charms and beads too.

Metal Allergies
316L surgical steel is hypoallergenic but does contain a small amount of nickel. The nickel release rate is only around 0.02μg/cm2/week (without the PVD coating) but it may cause a problem if you are very sensitive to nickel.

Black PVD surgical steel has a coating of Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN) applied using physical vapour deposition (PVD) to create a hypoallergenic, long-lasting black colour.

Read more about steel grades, nickel release rates and metal allergies here.
