316L Stainless Steel Body Jewelry for Piercing Brands & Studios

Home » Stainless Steel Body Jewelry

Body jewelry needs more than just a nice look—it must be precise, smooth and safe for long‑term wear. As an OEM manufacturer of stainless steel body jewelry, we supply piercing brands, wholesalers and studios with 316L surgical‑steel pieces produced to consistent gauges, lengths and finishes.

Seamless or hinged septum clickers and small captive hoops for daith piercings, available in fine gauges with gem or plain metal finishes.

316L Surgical‑Steel Material, Safety and Polish

Body jewelry directly contacts healing or healed piercings, where material quality, surface smoothness and biocompatibility determine customer satisfaction and repeat business. We address these critical concerns with surgical-grade 316L stainless steel, rigorous nickel testing, and precision polishing processes specifically designed for piercing applications.

316L Surgical Stainless Steel

All body jewelry uses ASTM F138-compliant 316L surgical stainless steel (not industrial 304), offering superior corrosion resistance and minimal ion release even in sweat or saline environments. This eliminates the “green skin” complaints common with lower-grade metals and supports long-term wear without irritation.

Mirror Polishing & Rounded Edges

Every piece undergoes multi-stage electropolishing to achieve mirror-smooth surfaces (Ra < 0.4μm), with all edges and threads meticulously rounded to prevent tissue tearing during insertion or wear—directly addressing piercer feedback about “scratchy” jewelry causing healing delays.

Nickel & Heavy Metal Compliance

Our 316L base material and PVD coatings pass EU REACH nickel release limits (<0.5μg/cm²/week) and RoHS testing. We provide test reports for regulated markets, eliminating compliance headaches for studios selling to EU/AU customers and reducing allergy claim risks.

PVD Colors Safe for Piercing

Unlike traditional electroplating that flakes and causes reactions, our PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) colors bond at molecular level with ultra-thin ceramic layers (<2μm), maintaining color integrity through autoclave sterilization and resisting chipping even after months of wear.

Autoclave & Disinfection Compatibility

All stainless steel body jewelry withstands repeated autoclaving (121°C, 15psi, 15-30min cycles) without discoloration or deformation, with PVD finishes tested to 500+ cycles—essential for professional piercing studios maintaining hygiene standards.

Thread Fit & Assembly Precision

Internal and external threads are precision-machined with 100% fit testing (no cross-threading), using thread lubricants during assembly to ensure smooth operation—solving the common complaint of “stuck balls” or loose ends that frustrate piercers and clients.
