G23 (Grade 23) is the alloy designation for Ti-6Al-4V ELI. ASTM F136 is the specification that alloy must meet to be called implant grade, covering chemistry and mechanical properties. A supplier can say "titanium" or even "G23" without meeting F136 — the mill certificate is what proves it. Every batch we buy comes with one.

Yes, and we treat them as part of the product, not an extra you have to ask for. The mill certificate states the heat lot and conformance to ASTM F136 / ISO 5832-3. The CoC references your production batch and the three QC gates it passed, and it ships with the goods.

20 pcs per style for ready stock, and any SKUs can be mixed in one order. 200 pcs for custom development where we are building tooling. If you need to test the market first, order 20 pieces per style, autoclave them and run your own QC before scaling.

Yes. Studios typically mix 20–40 SKUs in a single carton. There is no surcharge for mixed orders and no requirement to hit a per-SKU minimum.

3 days to dispatch existing SKUs from stock. Custom prototypes take 10–25 days depending on complexity, and we machine them in the production alloy rather than a stand-in material, so what you test is what you receive.

40–60 days for custom orders after sample approval. Ready-stock reorders dispatch in about a week. We will tell you the realistic number at quote stage rather than a best case.

It depends on the piercing. External threading is standard on barbells because the ends change constantly. Internal threading is the default for labrets and curved barbells, since the thread does not pass through the piercing channel. Threadless press-fit is preferred for initial jewellery because there is no thread at all — the tension of a slightly bent pin holds the top in place. We make all three and will tell you which one suits the SKU.

Yes, by fibre laser marking on the flat back. It is an engraving, not a coating, so it will not flake and it introduces no new material. Send a vector file and we will place it for approval on the drawing.

Anodised colour is produced by voltage, not by dye or plating — the oxide layer is part of the titanium. We record the voltage for each colour in the batch record, so a reorder six months later matches. PVD in black and gold tones is available at 5 microns.

EXW, FOB, CIF and DDP. For US and EU e-commerce clients we most often run DDP express, so the carton lands at your warehouse or 3PL with duties handled. Consolidated sea freight for container volumes.

Yes, for e-commerce sellers. We hold your SKUs, pack to your marketplace spec with your barcode or FNSKU, and ship single units directly to your customers with no branding from us.

Tell us within 30 days of receipt with photos and we will replace confirmed defects or credit them. Because every batch is linked to an inspection record, we can pull the record, find where it passed or failed, and act on it rather than argue about it.
