Technical Questions and Answers

Which platinum alloy can be used universally?

Platinum alloyed with 5% Ruthenium is the universal alloy of choice. Pt950/Ru is 130 HV hard, has excellent color and is 100% precious metal. It is used for casting, fabricating, machining and die striking. Most of the machined wedding bands sold in the U.S. are made from this alloy, and because of the hardness it will take on a very high luster.
