ASTM F136 Titanium Piercing Jewelry — Direct From Our Own CNC Factory
G23 (ASTM F136 / ISO 5832-3) implant-grade titanium: studs, hoops, labrets, seamless rings, threadless tops and navel barbells. Machined, mirror-polished and AQL 2.5 inspected in-house on 32 Swiss-type CNC lathes. Send a drawing, a sample or just an idea — 20 pcs per style stock MOQ, samples in 10-25 days, mill-certificate traceability on every heat lot.
No trading company margin · Mill certificate with every heat lot · EXW / FOB / DDP
The factory behind the catalogue
Custom manufacturer in Chang'an Town, Dongguan. Cutting, polishing, stone setting, inspection and packing happen under one roof, so a heat lot, a thread tolerance and a re-order all trace back to the same production record.
Full Factory Tour →Scale and finish, on real piercings
Four placements photographed on the body, not rendered. Judge how a 16G post, a flat-back top and a seamless ring actually sit before you commit to a sample run.
One baseline, every SKU
We do not run a different alloy per price point. Material, threading and gauge range are fixed across the range, so a mixed container behaves like one sourced programme.
ASTM F136 / G23 titanium
Nickel-free · autoclavable / high-temperature sterilisation · PVD gold and black at 5 µm
Three universal sizes
Internal is our premium construction; external is the volume baseline. Both run at 0.8 mm pitch.
Five standard gauges
These five gauges cover more than 95% of market demand. Anything else is cut to order.
Stone colours we actually run
21 colours · taken from the live catalogueThese are the stone colours we actually run — taken from the live catalogue, not a sample chart. Standard stones are stocked across the range; premium stones are cut and set to order. Counts show how many current styles offer each colour.
- Mix freely. Colour is chosen per stone, so one style can be split across several colours in the same order.
- Standard stones carry no surcharge and ship from stock — 20 pcs per style.
- Premium stones are cut and set to order, priced per stone.
- Metal finish is raw titanium as standard; PVD gold and black are run to a recorded batch value.
Six decisions, and every one is yours
The full customisation list — no asterisks, no "ask us about that later". Six variables decide the piece you receive.

From your drawing to a sealed carton
Six stages, in the order the metal actually moves. Nothing below leaves our building — the full twelve-stage line is on our factory page.
Drawing or sample
Send a CAD file, a sketch or a physical piece. We confirm feasibility and quote within 24 hours.
Sampling
Tooling released and a measurable sample produced in 10–25 days. Adjustments are normal and expected.
Approval
Sample approved against your drawing — dimensions, finish and thread fit recorded as the reference.
Production
Machining, polishing and stone setting run in-house over 40–60 days, with three recorded QC gates.
Inspection
AQL 2.5 final sampling against your batch number. Reports travel with the goods, not after them.
Shipment
Your barcode applied, documentation boxed alongside the cartons, despatched EXW, FOB or DDP.
The numbers before you ask
Minimums, timings and delivery terms are published because guessing costs you a week. These are the figures we quote against.
| Stock order | 20 pcs per style | 20 pcs minimum for each model / style. Mixed colours and gauges count toward the same style. |
|---|---|---|
| Custom OEM | 200 pcs minimum | Per design, across sizes and stone colours. |
| Sampling | 10-25 days | Drawing or physical sample to a finished, measurable piece. |
| Bulk production | 40-60 days | From approved sample and deposit. Rate varies with complexity. |
| Sample cost | Credited back | The sample charge is deducted from your first bulk order. |
| Incoterms | EXW · FOB · DDP | FOB Shenzhen as standard; DDP to US and EU destinations. |
| Quotation | Within 24 hours | A drawing, a target quantity and a destination is enough to start. |
Anything outside it — unusually high complexity, a rush slot, a special stone — gets flagged on the first reply rather than discovered later.
Four things a broker cannot do
These are the answers you get when you ask the difficult question before the first order.
Material you can trace
Every heat lot of Ti-6Al-4V ELI is logged at intake and followed through to the CoC in your shipment. If your regulator or marketplace asks, the paperwork already exists.
Machined, not cast or plated
Swiss-type CNC lathes hold ±0.05 mm on parts this small. Mirror polish is measured at Ra ≤ 0.2 µm, because a rough surface is what actually irritates a piercing.
All three threading systems
External, internal and threadless press-fit, each built to the standard the piercing actually needs — not whichever is cheapest to run.
Small orders genuinely welcome
20 pcs per style to start, mixed SKUs, 3-day dispatch on stock. Most factories say it; we price it the same as a large order because a trial order is usually the start of a bigger one.
Buyers in 40 countries
Piercing brands, studios, e-commerce sellers and distributors — from a 20-piece first order to exclusive private-tooling programmes.
