14KGF Gold Filled, Joint Parts

Size: Approx 38x2.5x0.6mm
Hole size: Approx 0.9mm
Color: Gold

These are Gold Filled bar parts. Gold Filled is a process where 14K gold is pressure-bonded to a base material (brass). If the weight of the gold is 1/20 or more of the total weight, it is called Gold Filled. By pressure-bonding 14K gold, the surface becomes pure 14K gold, while the unseen (non-skin-contacting) core is brass, making it more affordable. Therefore, its appearance is very similar to solid gold parts and differs from plated parts. It is also more durable (less prone to peeling) than plated items.
