Rugged Serinium® Wedding Bands
Wedding bands for the rugged man
What describes a Rugged man? And why does he need a Rugged Serinium® wedding band? A rugged man is little bit of scruff, buff and a lot of sexy. A rugged man is someone you want to be in the wilderness with when you’re hunting, fishing and camping.
Dress for success, or so the saying goes. You already own all the hunting, fishing, marine and camping gear — casual and outdoor apparel, footwear, optics, vehicle accessories, gifts and home furnishings… everything with an outdoor theme. Even your dog has a camo collar, sweater and rain slick. What are you missing… a Rugged Serinium® wedding ring!

Hardness of Serinium® wedding bands
Why is hardness important in a wedding band, you ask? So, on the Mohs Hardness Scale of 1 – 10, with gold and silver being only a 2.5 to 3, its clear that gold and silver are considered soft metals. Platinum (4 to 4.5) is almost twice as hard as gold and silver. And, Serinium® is harder and more scratch resistant than all of them.
The hardness of Serinium® is measured on the Rockwell Hardness Scale and comes in at 56 on the Rockwell C Scale. This system was devised to test the hardness of materials such as steel, copper, iron, aluminum, titanium, zinc and lead. The Rockwell Hardness test is a hardness measurement based on the net increase in depth of impression as a load is applied to a metal surface.
