What are threaded tops?

Threaded tops are the decorative end pieces that screw onto a threaded jewellery base such as a flat-back labret, straight barbell, or curved barbell. They are separate from the base by design, allowing you to change the look of a piercing without removing or replacing the post itself.

What is the difference between internally threaded and externally threaded tops?

With internally threaded tops, the screw thread is on the top itself and winds into a threaded channel inside the post. With externally threaded tops, the thread runs along the outside of the post and the top screws over it. The two systems are not cross-compatible — the top must match the threading system of your existing base.

What is the difference between threaded tops and threadless push-fit tops?

Threadless tops use tension rather than a screw thread to stay in place. They cannot be used with threaded posts, and threaded tops cannot be used with threadless bases. If you are unsure which system your jewellery uses, have it identified by a professional piercer before ordering.

What gauge are threaded tops?

Most threaded tops in this collection are available in 1.2mm (16g) — the standard gauge for helix, tragus, flat, labret, and nostril piercings. Some styles are also available in 1.6mm (14g), which is more common for navel and nipple piercings. Gauge must match your existing base exactly — the two are not interchangeable.

Are ASTM F136 implant-grade titanium threaded tops safe for sensitive skin?

ASTM F136 implant-grade titanium contains no nickel and is widely used in surgical implants. It is generally considered appropriate for wearers with metal sensitivities or nickel allergies in healed piercings. If you have a known allergy or a piercing that is still healing, consult a professional piercer or medical provider before use.

Can I use threaded tops on a healing piercing?

Jewellery changes on a healing piercing carry a risk of disrupting the healing process or introducing bacteria. Threaded tops should only be used on fully healed piercings unless a professional piercer or medical provider has assessed the piercing and confirmed a change is appropriate. Healing times vary widely between individuals and placements.

Do threaded tops fit all barbells and labrets?

No. Threaded tops must match the thread type (internal or external) and gauge of the base. A 1.2mm internally threaded top will not fit a 1.6mm post, and an internally threaded top will not fit an externally threaded post. Check both the gauge and thread system of your base before selecting a top.

Which threaded tops work best for helix and tragus piercings?

For helix piercings, gem threaded tops, opal threaded tops, star threaded tops, and crystal threaded tops are commonly used — they sit at an angle that makes the decorative element visible. For tragus piercings, lower-profile options such as flat disc threaded tops and small-diameter gem tops tend to be more comfortable for daily wear as they are less likely to catch on hair.

Threaded tops sold by Monster Piercing are intended for use on healed or professionally assessed piercings only. Jewellery should not be changed in a piercing that has not completed the healing process. Healing times vary significantly between individuals and piercing placements — consult a qualified professional piercer or licensed medical provider before changing jewellery in any piercing you are uncertain about.

Material descriptions including implant-grade, ASTM F136, 316L surgical steel, and nickel-free refer to the specific material grade listed on individual product pages. These descriptors are not interchangeable and apply only to the product as specified. Monster Piercing makes no claim that any product prevents, treats, or cures infection, allergic reaction, or any other medical condition.

Thread compatibility (internal vs external, gauge) is the sole responsibility of the purchaser. If you are unsure which system your existing jewellery uses, seek identification from a professional piercer before purchasing replacement tops.
