The size indication on these products is a little tricky, the measurement given when you choose is the largest measurement, as the product is not completely round but more oval, it is the height that is given when you choose in the list. If you order 10mm, the product is approx. 7mm wide and 11mm high. if you order 19mm, the product is approx. 17mm wide and 19mm high.
316L steel, or surgical steel as it is also called, is the material in which most of all piercing jewelry is made. It contains about 17% chromium, 12% nickel and 2.2% molybdenum, but it is so tightly bound in the metal that less than 0.1 millionth of a gram of nickel is emitted per cm2 and week. It is so small that 316L complies with EU directives for products that come into close and long-term contact with the skin. The limit value is 0.5 millionths of a gram / cm2 / week. "Ordinary" nickel allergy sufferers can usually wear 316L surgical steel, but if you are very sensitive or worried, you should choose titanium instead.
