Prong Retipping & Rebuilding
Secure. Re-Tipped. Re-Built.

Worn, broken, or missing prongs rebuilt and re-tipped under high magnification — protecting center stones and accent diamonds.

Overview

Engineered for
retail programs.

Prong loss is the leading driver of stone loss claims. Our setters re-tip and rebuild prongs to factory geometry, restoring retention without over-thickening the head.

Laser welding lets us work close to fragile or heat-sensitive stones without removing them — saving setting time and protecting the original head.

What we execute
