Well there has been a lot of fluff about internally threaded and externally threaded body jewellery, most of it is just hot air. Ultimately quality made externally threaded straight, bent, curved or circular barbells pose no danger to a properly cared for piercing, be it a lip, tongue, eyebrow, nipple or what ever. Internally threaded barbells also pose no threat to a cared for piercing. It's just a venue for a piercers to complain about and try to use as a bargaining chip to get the customers. (As an example: One piercer will say the guy down the road is a hack because he uses externally threaded jewellery, and the guy down the road will point out that the internally threaded jewellery has more components that can fail.) It's all just fluff, quality manufactured body jewellery* is made to last, it's not cheap crap you can buy in the mall and an experienced body piercer will quickly point out the flaws in cheap production junk. Externally threaded jewellery will have a greater selection of screw on ends and is just as good as internally threaded jewellery. So it's just a point for piercer A and piercer B to argue over. Just be sure you know who makes your jewellery, ask them to tell you who makes it so you know when you want to get different ends, you know what to look for. By the way they are not "studs" they are "barbells" curved, bent, straight or circular. Just so you know the correct phrase.
In a healed piercing internally threaded and externally threaded makes no difference to the piercing, it's a client's choice what jewellery you want to go with. Some piercers will get all jumpy about the threads cutting the piercing but in real life if the piercing is cleaned and changed properly it doesn't make a lot of difference Just be sure you are purchasing high quality jewellery and not junk from the mall.
Internally threaded barbells are what most professionals recommend that you use due to the fact that it completely eliminates the possibility of shredding the fistula with the threads that would be on an externally threaded barbell.
The threading (spiral screwy part), is on the outside of the barbell, instead of actually inside the barbell (internally threaded).
It can definitely. Most piercings that require a barbell are done with threaded jewelry just due to the fact that they are cheaper than internally threaded ones, and most shops prefer to save cash by doing this. You should switch over an internally threaded bar as soon as the piercing is healed and stick with them. They completely eliminate the possibility of shredding the fistula when sliding the jewelry in or out.
If the fittings are externally threaded it uses R12, and if the fittings are internally threaded, and have a smooth exterior it uses R 134a. In 1992 some vehicles were changing over to R134a, so it is hard to say. You just have to look at the fittings.
Yes. It usually hurts to change any piercing for the first time. Make sure that your new jewelry is internally threaded. External threading can scratch up the inside of your piercing and cause more pain/bleeding. Save the external threading for when it's really healed.
Nuts and bolts have a number of uses, the "broad" definition would be: * bolt - A headed and externally threaded fastener designed to be assembled with a nut. * nuts - An internally threaded product intended for use on external or male screw threads such as a bolt or a stud for the purpose of tightening or assembling two or more components.
A barrel nut is an internally threaded screw with a slotted head.
it means you took it out before it was healed. Or maybe you just scratched it when you changed it. Especially if the jewelery is externally threaded.
Taper
Lip or labret ( including Monroe) piercings, as you probably already know, are initially pierced with a stud that is just a smidge longer than you will need long term. This is to allow extra room for the expected swelling that occurs during the first 3 days. So, while the lip is swollen, it's usually a perfect fit. As soon as the swelling goes down, the labret stud should be changed to a shorter one. We usually use a 3/8 inch stud to pierce with, and change it to a 5/16 after the swelling subsides. It is best if you are pierced with internally threaded jewelry, so the piercer, or yourself, can use the threaded end of a taper pin to assist in easily swapping out the 2 pieces without losing connection. If you have problems changing your jewelry yourself, you can buy a piercing widget from a company called www.changemypiercing.com. A piercing widget is a three piece tool used to insert jewelry, or change jewelry, and works with 14 gauge internally threaded jewelry.
