ÒHeavyÓ is the trade's word for the wall thickness: the ball is formed from heavier-gauge metal than the standard version, so it resists denting and holds its shape over years of wear rather than going soft and oval.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pair is 9ct yellow gold, 8 mm across. The weight of a ball stud sits directly on the lobe rather than hanging from it, which is why ball studs stay comfortable at diameters that would be unwearable as a drop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 8 mm the stud covers most of the lobe. This is the size where the weight of the metal starts to be felt, and where a secure back matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetal:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9ct yellow gold (375)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heavy Ball Stud\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProfile:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sphere\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWall:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heavy gauge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polished\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold as:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e9ct yellow gold is 375 parts per thousand fine gold.
