    We are going on vacation to an ocean. Does salt water effect the jewelry on a PA. I use titanium mostly but like the weight of stainless steel. Just curious thank you in advance

    No I have had stainless steel jewelry in my PA for years and never had a problem after swimming in the sea. After all urine is pretty salty and that doesnt do any harm.

    Nothing wrong going for a swim as titanium alloys have a really good resistace to corrosion.

    Of course sea water is more corrosive than a NaCl solution, and the titanium aöloys differ in their resistance, but all this only matters on a theoretical level.

    Just clean it afterwards when you shower and you should be fine.

    Salt water shouldn’t after titanium, it’s a good quality alloy, you should be fine.

    As long as jewelry is of good quality shouldn't tarnish or be affected.
