Metal

Titanium

One of the most important aspects of keeping an eyeglasses frame is its durability. No matter how carefully you use your eyewear frames, they are bound to break or fall. Titanium material can be bent and twisted and then come back to its original form. The quality of these frames is durable and reliable for rough use also. As compared with regular metal, Titanium is one of the lightest and most preferred materials used in the manufacturing of eyeglasses frames. These Titanium frames can be easily worn with a lot of comfort and relief while playing games, jogging or running. With no maintenance required for these frames, it is surely one of the best materials especially for eyeglass frames.
 

Flexon or Memory Metal

This is a titanium alloy composed of roughly 50% Titanium and 50% Nickel. Frames made of memory metal are extremely flexible and can be twisted or bent to an extreme and still return to their original shape. This feature makes memory metal frames great for kids or anyone who is rough with their glasses.
 

Beta Titanium

Alloy of predominantly Titanium, with small amounts of Aluminum and Vanadium. The other metals in the alloy make beta titanium more flexible than 100% titanium for easier fitting adjustments. Beta Titanium has memory features and is mostly used in high-quality designer frames. Due to its toughness and low weight, it can be used to create thick looking frame fronts as well as ultra-thin eyewear temples.
