16 Gauge Hinged Ring Clicker. It's a hinged ring clicker, a clean, simple piece with no stone or charm, just a well-made design that pairs easily with anything. The hinged segment snaps open and closed with a light click, so there's nothing to twist on or off, and no tiny ball to hunt for on the bathroom floor. Either wear it in lip, labret, nose, septum, daith, rook, tragus, conch, orbital, helix, ear lobe, ear, or oral piercings. In a lip or labret piercing, the hinge sits close to the skin, which helps keep it comfortable when you're talking or eating. A simple design that pairs well with pretty much anything.
Implant grade titanium (ASTM F136) is the standard we build every piece around, since it's what most piercers actually recommend. It's hypoallergenic and nickel-free, so sensitive skin isn't an issue, and it can be safely sterilised ahead of your appointment. Strong, lightweight, and resistant to corrosion, it holds up whether it's going into a fresh piercing or one you've had for years.
It comes in 16 gauge; diameters from 5mm to 14mm. Full options are listed above the Add to Cart button. Check the size guide first if you're not sure what you're currently wearing.

FAQs
Is solid ASTM F136 Implant Grade Titanium safe for a new piercing?
Yes, you're covered, whether it's fresh or still healing. It's made from solid ASTM F136 implant grade titanium, the medical-grade standard piercers recommend for this stage. It's hypoallergenic and nickel-free, so you don't have to worry about a surface coating wearing away and exposing unknown metals underneath. It's a suitable choice for sensitive skin and people with metal allergies.
What size does this come in?
It comes in 16 gauge, the standard thickness for this type of jewellery. Diameters range from 5mm to 14mm to suit different piercings. Full options are listed above the Add to Cart button. Check the size guide if you're not sure what you're currently wearing.
Which piercings can I wear this in?
You can wear this in lip, labret, nose, septum, daith, rook, tragus, conch, orbital, helix, ear lobe, ear, and oral piercings. Check with your piercer if you're not sure it'll work for your specific placement or anatomy.
How do I clean and care for it?
A saline solution or Pheenix Piercing Spray is all it needs. Skip the alcohol, peroxide, and harsh chemical cleaners, since they'll dull the finish over time. Titanium won't corrode or discolour with normal wear.
