THREADLESS BODY JEWELLERY & PUSH FIT LABRETS

The top’s pin has a factory-set slight bend. Pushed into the hollow post, the bend presses against the inside wall and holds by tension. Fitted properly it is very secure — it takes a deliberate straight pull to remove.

To fit: hold the disc end, line the pin up with the post and push straight in until the top sits flush. To remove: hold the post still and pull the top straight out — do not unscrew it, there is no thread. If the top feels loose, add a whisper more bend to the pin before refitting.

Items listed as 14k gold in this range are solid gold — yellow, white or rose — not plating. Each product page states its material exactly; the Materials Guide explains the difference between solid gold and PVD-coated steel elsewhere on the store.

Match the gauge of your current jewellery — 16g and 18g cover most threadless piercings — and pick the post length your piercer fitted you with. A healed piercing usually wears a shorter post than a fresh one, so downsizing is normal once swelling is gone.

Only if the post is a hollow threadless (push-fit) post — threaded posts are not compatible. If your current stud unscrews, you need one of the threadless posts from this range to wear these tops.
