Match the gauge, not the look

Gauge is the number that decides whether a piece goes through at all, and it should match what your piercer put in. If you are not sure of yours, ask them rather than guessing from a photograph.

About this piece

We machine these 16G segment hoops from solid 316L surgical steel, sized at an 8mm inner diameter. The hinged clasp clicks shut firmly with fingers alone. You get four matching steel clickers in the pack to swap between nostril, septum, helix, or lip piercings.

Details

Sixteen gauge steel wire

The post thickness measures 16G, which equals 1.2mm. Make sure your piercing gauge matches what your piercer put in, because forcing a thicker ring into a smaller channel will pinch. We polish the entire loop smooth.

Eight millimeter inner circle

An 8mm interior span, or five sixteenths of an inch, gives a close fit on many nostril and ear placements. Measure your piercing distance before picking this diameter so the ring sits flush without pulling against your skin.

Hinged clasp closure

The swinging segment clicks directly into the hoop channel with light finger pressure. You do not need opening pliers or loose balls that can drop down a drain. If alignment shifts, gently press the sides to realign the catch.

Four hoops per pack

We package four identical 8mm surgical steel rings together in a velvet pouch. You can use them across multiple ear and facial piercings at once or keep clean spares ready in your jewelry box. Wipe dry after cleaning.
