Threadless Jewellery; Enhance your style with ease

With the advancement of technology, the concept of push-fit jewellery appeared that simplify the process of inserting jewellery into the piercing, thus providing ease and comfort. Many professional piercers prefer threadless piercing jewellery to be initial and healing piercings. This blog will cover the understanding of threadless jewellery and its benefits.
In 1997, threadless jewellery was also invented by Neo Metal and was also known as push fit / pull it jewellery. It does not look like threaded jewellery where you have to screw the ends; instead, they have a hollow shaft where you have to insert the pin by bending and pushing it. Threadless jewellery consists of two parts: a decorative top and a post with a hollow internal shaft. The top usually consists of gemstones or pearls, whereas the post is the thin straight bar with a small groove. The two pieces are bent together through tension created by the pin when slightly bent and pressed into the shaft.
How to wear threadless jewellery
Step 1
Gradually insert the post into the piercing hole. Don’t force it, and ensure the alignment is proper. If you find it difficult to insert, you can lubricate the post or use a taper to aid the insertion.
Step 2
As the post is inserted into the hole, secure it with the decorative post. Gradually press the top onto the post to ensure it is fixed safely. The easy way to put it into the shaft is to slightly bend the top when it goes halfway through the shaft and avoid bending it too hard. Otherwise, It might break .
Step 3
Check the jewellery to see if it is properly attached. If it is still loose or comes off easily, firmly press the top onto the post.
