Surgical Steel Tongue rings & bars

Surgical steel, also known as 316L and Implant steel is a steel alloy that is the most common body piercing material. It can be polished to a shiny surface, and many people prefer this material to titanium because of its beautiful luster.

 

Allergic reactions, when they occur are rarely due to the stainless steel but from other factors most commonly from mechanical irritation or harsh cleaning products. Allergic reactions typically include redness, itching and swelling with a discharge of clear fluid.

 

The element in stainless steel that causes allergic reactions in some people is nickel. Polishing the jewelry to a mirror like luster results in a protective layer of chromium oxide keeping the Nickel content trapped inside.
