SiO₂ Plate Protector™

🛡️ The Breakthrough That Keeps Your Ring Brilliant

At FratRings, we know that your ring isn’t just jewelry—it’s a symbol of legacy, pride, and identity. That’s why we’ve developed the SiO₂ Plate Protector™, a patented innovation that dramatically enhances the longevity, shine, and durability of all our plated rings.

💡 What Is SiO₂ Plate Protector™?

The SiO₂ Plate Protector™ is a nano-ceramic silica coating applied over the gold plating of our rings. It forms an invisible, ultra-thin shield that protects the surface from:

Tarnish

Scratches

Sweat & skin oils

Water & humidity

Daily wear & tear

Built on silicon dioxide (SiO₂)—a compound found in natural quartz—this advanced coating is inspired by the technology used in luxury watches and aerospace materials.

✨ Why It Matters

Most plated rings start to fade, scratch, or tarnish after a few months of use. Our SiO₂ Plate Protector™ creates a hard, flexible surface barrier that:

✅ Preserves the gold finish longer
✅ Maintains high brilliance and shine
✅ Adds scratch resistance without changing color
✅ Extends the lifetime of the ring—up to 5x compared to uncoated rings

🔬 How It Works

Each ring is submerged in a specialized SiO₂ solution and bonded using an electrostatic process. The result is a microscopic glass-like coating that remains completely clear, allowing the gold underneath to shine through without distortion or dullness.

🔁 Tested. Trusted. Proven.

This isn’t just a gimmick — the SiO₂ Plate Protector™ has been field-tested by soldiers, athletes, fraternity and sorority leaders, and jewelry wearers with active lifestyles. Even after daily wear, their rings held up to moisture, friction, and time.

🧠 Tech You Can Feel. Protection You Can Trust.

We’re proud to be one of the only ring makers in the market using this next-generation protection. Whether you’re shaking hands, stepping on stage, or handing down your ring, the SiO₂ Plate Protector™ ensures your legacy shines on.
