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 18 gauge hinged clickers from solid 316L surgical steel with a smooth hand polish across the whole circle. The segment swings open on an integrated pin and snaps firmly back into line. You get five identical 10mm hoops in the pack. Match your wire thickness to what your piercer used.

Details

Hinged clicker closure

The jointed segment swings open easily by hand so there are no loose balls to drop. It clicks straight back into the channel without special pliers. If the clasp ever feels loose, a gentle squeeze brings the ends flush again.

Ten millimetre inner diameter

A 10mm opening gives clean clearance across ear cartilage, septum placements, or nostril piercings where a tight ring pulls. We measure inner diameter across the open space inside the circle, not the outer rim.

Eighteen gauge wire

This wire is 1.0mm thick. It sits between standard earring studs and heavier body jewelry posts. Check your current jewelry before ordering so you do not force a thicker ring into a smaller channel.

Solid 316L surgical steel

We use hypoallergenic 316L surgical steel with a mirror shine and rounded edges that glide through existing piercings cleanly. Wipe each hoop down with a dry soft cloth after wear to keep the surface bright.
