WHY IT'S THE BEST IN THE WORLD
Sometimes you need to dress up. Tungsten gives you the premium, traditional feel of a metal wedding band with serious durability and our patented inner breathable grooves.
Then we solve the real-world part: you also get a Zeus ring, so you have a “show ring” and a “go ring.” Wear the tungsten when you want the classic look. Swap to Zeus when life gets active.
- Premium tungsten construction
- Scratch-resistant finish
- Includes a free Zeus ring
- 94-year No BS Groove Guarantee
Sizing Recommendation:
Our metal rings follow standard sizing, and we’ve paired our Patented Zeus ring as your active option. Zeus Ring Sizing: A Zeus Ring is included with every order, but is not marked in half sizes. It will fit one size up. Examples: 10 and 10.5 will both have a size 11 Zeus Band.
*(Zeus sizing differs from our metal ring sizing, please see the inside of the silicone ring to find your size if you’ve purchased one in the past.)

FAQs
Product Details & Materials
What are Groove Life metal rings made of?
Our metal rings are crafted from high-quality Tungsten Carbide. We use a hypoallergenic composition that is medical-grade and cobalt-free to prevent skin irritation.
How much real gold or platinum is used in the finishes?
Our gold rings feature a 24K gold finish, and our silver rings use 99.95% platinum. These are applied via PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) for a premium, high-end look.
What is PVD coating, and why does it matter?
PVD stands for Physical Vapor Deposition. It’s a process that creates a durable, tarnish-resistant surface. This makes our gold and black finishes significantly more resistant to fading than traditional plating.
Are these rings magnetic?
No. Our Tungsten rings are anti-magnetic, making them safe for various specialized work environments and daily wear.
Why does the ring feel so heavy?
Tungsten is incredibly dense—similar to the weight of gold. This gives the ring a substantial, luxurious "manly" weight that feels much more premium than lightweight alternatives.
Are the edges sharp?
Not at all. Each ring is designed with smooth, beveled edges to ensure it doesn't dig into your skin when you flex your hand or grip objects.
Will my Tungsten ring rust or corrode?
No. Tungsten is a non-ferrous metal (it contains no iron), meaning it cannot form iron oxide (rust). It is highly corrosion-resistant.
Sizing & Fit
How do I choose the right size?
Tungsten fits differently than silicone. We recommend using the specific Tungsten sizing guide on the product page. Typically, customers size down by a half-size from their silicone ring size.
Do you offer half-sizes?
Yes! Our Tungsten line is the only collection at Groove Life that offers half-sizes (available from 7 to 14) to ensure the most precise fit possible.
Can I have a Tungsten ring resized by a jeweler?
No. Tungsten is too hard to be cut and soldered like gold or silver. If your finger size changes, the entire ring must be replaced.
What if I order the wrong size?
Don’t sweat it. We offer a 30-day exchange window. You can use our online portal for a "painless" exchange to get the perfect fit.
Comfort & Breathability
Is a metal ring actually breathable?
Yes! This is what sets us apart. Our tungsten rings feature internal grooves—indented lines that allow air in and moisture out, preventing "finger sweat" and skin irritation.
Is it safe for sensitive skin?
Absolutely. Our Tungsten is hypoallergenic. Many users who get rashes from cheap rings (which often use nickel/cobalt binders) find they can wear ours all day without issues.
Does the ring feel secure on the finger?
Yes. Between the weighted feel of the metal and the internal groove design, the ring stays seated comfortably and is less likely to slip off than a standard smooth metal band
Durability & Safety
Is Tungsten scratch-resistant?
Tungsten is one of the hardest materials on Earth. It is virtually scratch-proof -which means the material is designed to reduce scratches, not eliminate them.
Can the ring shatter?
While Tungsten is hard, it is also brittle (like a diamond). If dropped on a hard surface like ceramic tile, there is a chance it could shatter. This is a trade-off for its extreme scratch resistance.
What happens in an emergency removal situation?
In an accident, emergency rooms don't cut tungsten; they crack it using a specialized tool or vice grips. It is actually faster and safer to remove in an emergency than gold.
Is it safe for electricians to wear?
While tungsten is less conductive than gold or copper, it is still a metal. If you are working around high voltage, we strongly recommend switching to the included Zeus silicone ring.
Can I break a car window with my ring?
Because tungsten is so hard, it can act like a glass-breaker tool. Be careful when slamming car doors or getting the urge to punch a window, as a sharp "clink" can spider-web tempered glass!
Do I get a free silicone ring with my purchase?
Yes! Every Tungsten order comes as a Signature Set, which includes a Black Zeus Silicone Ring and a protective case.
Can I choose a different color for the bonus Zeus ring?
Currently, the bonus Zeus ring is only available in Black to keep the set classic and versatile.
How do I return or exchange the set?
Because the Tungsten ring and Zeus ring are sold as a "Signature Set," they must be returned or exchanged together as a unit.
Maintenance & Appearance
Why is my ring making a “pinging” sound?
Tungsten has a high acoustic resonance. Unlike gold, which makes a dull thud, tungsten “rings” like a bell when tapped against a hard surface.
Will my ring smell like “old pennies”?
No. That smell usually comes from cheap rings using cobalt binders. Our high-quality, hypoallergenic tungsten is odorless.
Can I get my ring engraved?
Traditional diamond-tipped engraving tools cannot scratch tungsten. To engrave these rings, you must use a specialized fiber laser. We do not currently offer in-house engraving for tungsten.
Warranty & Value
Why does a Groove ring cost more than a $20 Amazon ring?
You aren't just buying metal; you’re buying our Legendary Warranty. If you lose your ring, damage it, or your size changes, we stand behind our product with a replacement or credit.
What does the Groove Guarantee cover?
Whether you lose it in the ocean or it shatters on a tile floor, we’ve got your back with a quick replacement process up to 2 times.
Is the bonus Zeus ring covered by a warranty too?
Yes! The Zeus ring included in your set carries the same legendary warranty as all other Groove Life silicone products.
Do you offer matching sets for couples?
While we don't have a specific "Couples SKU," many people buy matching finishes. We are constantly looking to expand our sizes to offer more feminine styles in the future.
How do I contact support if I have an issue?
