Gold & Platinum Guardian Original Locking Earring Post & Nut Sets – 6.1mm

A locking earring post and nut set is what the bench reaches for when an earring has to stay on the ear, replacing a friction back with a clutch that holds until it is deliberately released.

The Original Guardian positive locking set from WR Cobb pairs a 2-notched post with a matching locking nut. Straight ridged trigger tabs snap the nut firmly into one of the two post notches and release only when both side tabs are pressed together. The post measures 0.89 mm (0.035") in diameter and 10.0 mm (0.395") long; the nut measures 7.4 mm (0.290") across; and the set is sold by the piece in 14K yellow, 14K white, 18K yellow, and 18K white gold and in platinum. All of the metal is 100% recycled and the sets are manufactured in the USA under ISO 14001:2015 environmental and ISO 9001:2015 quality certification.
