16 Gauge Internally Threaded Titanium Crystal Circular Barbell
✓ Waterproof ✓ Hypoallergenic ✓ Tarnish Free
Add a refined touch of sparkle to your piercing stack with this 16 Gauge Titanium Crystal Ends Circular Barbell. Crafted from ASTM F136 titanium, the classic horseshoe design is finished with twin internally threaded 4mm prong-set cubic zirconia ends for a clean silver look with just the right amount of shine.
✨ Why You'll Love It
✔ Twin Prong-Set Crystal Ends: Two matching 4mm cubic zirconia ends add balanced sparkle to both sides of the circular barbell for a polished, jewellery-led finish.
✔ ASTM F136 Titanium: Crafted from lightweight ASTM F136 titanium for a premium material upgrade from standard surgical steel jewellery.
✔ Internally Threaded Design: The crystal ends screw into the bar rather than onto an exposed external thread, creating a smoother jewellery system and a more premium construction.
💎 The Detail
A sparkling upgrade to the classic horseshoe barbell, this design combines a clean polished titanium finish with two prong-set crystal ends. Its understated shape makes it easy to coordinate with an existing piercing stack while the twin cubic zirconia details give it a more elevated finish than a plain circular barbell.
This circular barbell is 16 gauge (1.2mm), crafted from ASTM F136 titanium and features internally threaded 4mm cubic zirconia ends with an 8mm inner diameter. Sold individually and designed for compatible, fully healed piercings including septum, eyebrow, daith, rook and selected lip or cartilage placements where the gauge, diameter and jewellery shape suit your anatomy.

CARE & LONGEVITY
A little thoughtful care will help your jewellery look its best for longer.
Titanium is highly resistant to corrosion and suitable for everyday wear. Rinse and dry after exposure to sweat, seawater or chlorinated water.
Titanium is well suited to everyday wear. Check your jewellery regularly and make sure threaded or push-in ends remain secure.
After contact with sweat, seawater or chlorinated water, rinse your jewellery with clean water and dry it thoroughly using a soft cloth.
Clean gently using warm water and a mild, fragrance-free soap. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth before wearing or storing.
Avoid bleach, alcohol, abrasive cleaners and other harsh chemicals.
Store your jewellery somewhere clean and dry, ideally separately from other pieces to prevent scratches or tangling. The pouch provided with your order is perfect for keeping it protected.
Avoid knocking, pulling or catching crystal settings on clothing. Clean around decorative details gently and avoid soaking or using abrasive brushes.
Jewellery care is different from piercing aftercare. If your piercing is new, irritated or still healing, speak to a professional piercer before changing your jewellery.

How is barbell length measured?
Straight barbells: Measure the wearable bar between the two balls or attachments. Do not include the balls or decorative ends in the measurement.
Curved barbells: Measure the wearable section of the curved bar between the two attachments.
Nipple barbells: Measure the wearable straight bar between the two ends. For decorative nipple shields or specialised designs, check the product specifications because the wearable length can differ from the overall bar measurement.
Everyone’s anatomy is different. If possible, measure jewellery that already fits comfortably.
