How Strong is Gold or Silver? Hydraulic Press Test!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 чер 2024
- Which is the strongest jewelry / precious metal? Yellow Gold, White Gold or Silver? How many tons they can take? We are going to test that out with our 150 ton hydraulic press and 150 ton force sensor. And how they rank against metals like Tungsten / wolfram, Magnesium, Bishmuth, Aluminium or Iron?

Thanks to Kultasepät Andreasen for making the cubes for free to be crushed on the video. And as I mentioned they took them back and you can now order for example gold ring that is made out of crushed HPC gold :D Here is link to their website if you are interested www.andreasen.fi/en/
Hey
How do i order it?
He also has hair of gold.
Please do a colab with Slow Mo Guys
As if gold wasnt expensive enough, you can now also get internet-famous gold!
The same goldsmith made our engagement rings 10 years ago! 🤩 Little we knew what life gives us!
Wholesome 💯
Do you know what the three rings of marriage are?
1) Engagement ring
2) Wedding ring
3) Suffering
:D
@@chrisfreemesser5707 good one :)
What goes around, comes around again Anni. Prrritti Guud link in life.
Ask Lauri if he can make you a golden ring with the press. ;)
Not only entertaining...but educational too. Penguins have blue blood! Thank you Anni and Laurie!
Only wealthy penguins from New England have blue blood.
The rest have red gutter mud blood, like all commoners.
Wait.. Do they crush a penguin?
Why, of course it is blue - they live in such cold climates!
We have blue blood also but when exposed to oxygen it turns red
@@hellfire66683 Don't you have green necroplasm?
It finally has arrived! The whole purpose why I've watched this channel for over a year was to reach this pinnacle.
I work with tungsten carbide. It'd be interesting to see tungsten carbide cubes done like this! I have a lot available if you need some. I can send them for free.
He did a video a while back with some tungsten carbide pebbles that go into those giant pavement saws that cut concrete and roads...lol the thing did not break a sweat, it just deformed the tool and got stuck inside it.
Can I have some
This is the video where he crushes the carbide bits.

I have a ring made from tungsten carbide. I absolutely love it, as I don't care about paying for gold, and it's cheap and strong.
My prediction is it would shatter like glass.
Test some cobalt chrome alloy. They sell wedding rings made out of this stuff. It looks like platinum but is hard enough that you can lift weights wearing it without issue.
The goldsmith was really hyper up about the video project and we are doing more of these with them.
@@HydraulicPressChannel Isn't it amazing how working with big machines bring out the inner child in everyone :)
But I think it’s brittle
Titanium I think is supposed to be pretty strong metal
Edit well crap. I typed this before the end of the video
I still wouldn't lift with anything that's not breakaway- otherwise that's how you lose a finger
I like the way the squished cubes appear to levitate when they're stacked on top of each other.
Wait, you mean that's not a side effect of the hydraulic press? ;)
@Kartikey Kasniya Most metals have a spring like behavior under stress/pressure. So while being compressed, these metal cubes have a small amount of spring force in all directions. In the center of each cube you have a lot of vertical pressure which will spring back up in a bulge. To a lesser extent the cubes also have sideways spring behavior because of internal tension induced by the squishing. So material pulls back toward the center as pressure is released, accentuating the bounceback from the release of vertical pressure.
Extremely satisfying crushes. Also love the strength comparison chart. Fascinating, even if just an estimate.
It would be cool if you have a thermal camera in your videos
I guess, it's pretty warm.
All three were a lot stronger than I assumed. Good on your goldsmith friend for helping out!

The crushed yellow gold looks like the most delicious brownie
Forbidden brownie!
It's probably safe to eat, but it might be hard on your teeth
And expensive
@@jennasloan396 pure gold is soft like frozen butter

When I worked in architecture we did a job for a secret gold factory building. The building was unmarked and it had special entrances. When you leave the building they have special rugs that collect the dust off of your shoes and scanners you walk through to make sure you are to taking gold particles out the door. It was very interesting. When I saw the guy filing that cube, it reminded me of the trouble they go through to collect the dust and reprocess the gold out of it :)
I can sleep well knowing that the HPC is still dealing with extremely dangerous playdough creatures every day
Thanks for the video this made my day so much better :D thanks Lauri and anni I am subscribed to your both channels
Poor wifey. Every time she makes a clay figure, it's extremely dangerous and could attack at anytime where you then have to deal with it.
Wife is secretly an SCP.
It’s not her fault she makes them so good that they’re bad Keepo
@@Chaosrain112 that's just the coverup. the figures are produced by an anomalous tub of play-doh and the containment consists of the regular crushing. that's what they have to deal with
My wife just looked over my shoulder, when Pinguini had been flattened and mentioned without further context: „no you can’t do this 😱😢😂
Penny Farthing
Huh I never thought the gold alloys would be that strong.
I was surprised they're stronger than copper.
It was also huge surprise for me. I started to crush these just standing next to the press and then I realized that they are not going to go easily and I went behind shield :D I was also super worried that they are going to explode and we are going to loose the pieces.
@@HydraulicPressChannel haha, that'd be expensive shrapnel flying around
@@hermitoldguy6312 I think copper is most commonly used as an copper alloy that is probably stronger than pure copper.
Should do gold-titanium alloy, much stronger.
2:55 never understood this “white gold” stuff…and I’m reminded of Blackadder the second
“The colour of gold…is GOLD…that’s why it’s called GOLD”…
Gold is not a color. Gold is an element on the periodic table
@@MyUnquenchableThirst yet pure gold…is gold coloured…?
@@trayolphia5756 that's just so the miners can see it better. lol
@@trayolphia5756 but pure gold has a color that most people have never seen before because gold is almost always mixed with other metals. White gold is also a mixture of mostly gold and some other metals. All the mixtures have different colors.
Its more like the opposite. The color gold is called like that because of the metal. White gold is not pure gold, is an alloy, which means that it has other metals in its composition, hence the different color.
This was a golden opportunity
Good one
Seeing the cubes deform in slo-mo is awesome. Great job.
All these UHD macro videos look very nice Lauri. Especially on a 32" monitor. Great details. Prrritti Guud.
We are SO CLOSE to the Hydraulic Mint Channel.....
They've minted their own coin in a previous video!
This was extremely satisfying to see.
Thank you!
Everybody in their heads:
"Now this, I've gotta see"
The extra content never gets old.
I love your extra contents. Nice video. 👍
Still my favourite sound, hearing that specific press.... I don't know why but it sounds so nice.
Great video! You should do one exclusively with the different types of iron alloys.
Very nice of them to work with you on this. :)
So satisfying, you can even see individual grains in the metal.
Maybe try some etched blocks, so you can see the grain structure even more.
Wow, you finally got someone to let you do it. Pretty good.
If Wolverine ever comes by again, ask him if he has a 1" cube of Adamantium for comparison :-D
Then ask Cap for vibranium
I haven't seen Wolverine in many years but when he last visited we tried with Adamantium, here is video about that day ua-cam.com/video/Nzq1IFUlV8s/v-deo.html
Then crush thor's hammer
I’d say to crush a cube of Unobtainium, but i hear it’s pretty hard to get 😉
@@HydraulicPressChannel Now do vibranium.
Looks almost fluid in closeup. Fascinating 👍🏻
I like how the color and texture change while the blocks deform.
Gooooold!
I can sleep well knowing that the HPC is still dealing with extremely dangerous playdough creatures every day
I wonder what lead would be like? It'll be interesting testing some more soft metals
I suggested Pingu as an extra content already _5 years ago_ , after I started subscribing this channel! Awesome work Anni!
Thank you for this video. My young daughter wanted to know which was stronger, gold or silver, and that's how we found your video. Thanks for the good examples.
That was dope bro!
It kinda looked like the white gold was liquefying to some degree at the crushing edge as it spread out, not along the whole bottom edge, but little droplets here and there
Everything is a fluid. Physics can blow your mind.
@@14goldmedals Yeah, but unless you're talking geological scales, we don't normally consider most solids to be fluidic. Fluid dynamics are typically only used to model gasses and liquids, except under very specific circumstances such as tectonics and liquefaction. You don't consider fluid dynamics when building a high rise unless you're building on some sketchy soil/clay. Same as you don't need to consult quantum chromodynamics when engineering a bridge....
Interesting how much the cube seemed to work-harden really quickly... thanks!
thus is my favourite channel
I love that 0.4 inch conversion. Long live decimal. Fuck fractions.
1/3 of people hate fractions.
1/3 of people like fractions.
1/3 of people don't care either way about fractions.
and the 4th 1/3 of people can't do fractions. :)
Wow. How unexpected. I did not expect the precious metals to be close to the "functional" metals. granted, you said these were alloys but that's really cool. Great video!
Pingu gave his life for us on hyvää vappua. So everyone needs to eat a donut today in his honor. :)
Noot noot!
I have no idea what this means, but i'm in.
@@mattfleming86 Vappu is celebrated annually on May 1st and marks the end of winter. It is also celebrated as International Labour Day and is one of the biggest festivals of the year in Finland alongside Midsummer's Day and Christmas.
Donuts are another fried food customarily consumed on May Day. The Finnish version is called munkki. The word means “monk,” and legend has it that the name refers to the similarly brown colour of monastic robes or the round shape of the monks themselves, or both.
NOOT NOOT!
I'm not sure what to think of the blue blood...
It looks super cool when the areas next to pressing tool melt upon pressing due to heat generated by friction.
Awesome Pingu Anni!
Yellow gold what karat? I'm surprised it's stronger than pure iron. Great video
Yeah, I want to see pure yellow gold, I can't imagine that the stuff they use to make gold leaf would hold up this well. I was expecting it to curl upwards like the playdough.
I actually know the answer to this buddy. But god this is so satisfying to watch
Really awesome!
Is that gold cube gonna be a supporter giveaway? Because if so, dibs. Mad dibs on that
whos childhood was ruined by the extra content? i know mine was.
This is good to know. If I ever stick my hand in a hydraulic press, my wedding band just might survive.
AvE brought me here a couple of years back and I never left.
Greetings from Chile, awesome channel guys, maybe you could try crushing the hardest kinds of woods available
would love to see this with polished gold too!
I really like the comparison between all the metals at 5:42
Always love this best content for us to watch 😎😛
Gold is a beautiful metal, look and properties wise.
It would be interesting to see different bronze (naval) alloys compared to the steel alloys
would love to see this with an infrared camera to see the way each conducts heat...!
Move aside tungsten cube we got the high roller in. Next up platinum then iridium then rhodium if you want to really flex that UA-cam money
I want to see Plutonium cube, but that would need to be filmed with long distance lenses on the cameras.
@@justskip4595 Imagine trying to order 20g of plutonium. Besides having to fork over about $80k, I think you would have some government types knocking on your door.
Palladium ftw
Good macro footage!
This is not the result I expected. I thought yellow gold would be the softest metal of all with the possible exception of bismuth. Instead gold is among the hardest in the results, not that far behind titanium. Interesting! And I appreciate the table of results Lauri. I think such a table should be a regular part of videos. Kiitos!
I'm so glad the world has someone to protect us from such vicious animals. I could smell the bloodlust emanating from that penguin. You probably saved several lives today.
1:50 *thanks for the slow motion! I almost missed the action* 😂
I want to show all the details. And I have used almost 10k€ on that camera setup to get 4k@100fps macro videos so I am going to use it :D
@@HydraulicPressChannel 10k€!?! Damn lol
@@FBIagentObama Camera frame was about 4800€, then about 2000€ on different lenses, 500€ on monitor, 200€ on batteries filters etc. AND 550€ for memory card + 150€ for memory card reader :D
And then all the tripods and packs etc. But the trick is to only say that the camera is going to cost about 4000€ when you are pitching the idea to your wife :D
@@HydraulicPressChannel I hope the BatteryChangerAnni lasts a real long time. She is priceless. :)
As it is crushed it actually hardens if I’m not mistaken.
It is prone to cracking and becoming a tad brittle but if put in heat and annealed it would be soft again!
When you showed extra content, I can hear Morgan Freeman lamenting "the Crush of the Penguins". "Unfortunately, there is no escape for the penguin, the hoodraulic press is to much for him to bear, and we will have to deal with it"
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Nook nook!"
I'd love to see a zoom in with slow motion on that "melt front" or whatever it is...
thanks for put all number in 1 screen
I wear a tungsten carbide wedding ring. It's the only one that can stand up to the wear and tear of a technician working in the oil industry. We work with hard alloys all the time like P550 or Inconel. The hard-facing put on top of those is crazy hard, and my hands come into contact with it all the time.
You can compare your results to published data for strength of materials in compression. For instance I found a reference that says the compressive strength of gold varies from 20MPa to 205MPa. 1 MPa is 1 million kg, multiplied by 9.8, divided by the area of compression. For a 10mm cube the data suggests the applied force at ultimate compressive stress should be 2000 to 20,000N, or 204kg to 2004kg, or .2 to 2 metric tons, or 449 to 4490lb. You can get this number for any material, just multiply the strength by the area, that gives you force.
Thanks for your efforts...fun videos.
That was satisfying to watch. I thought the yellow gold would be softer.
Yes, pure gold would be interesting. I expect it would be a lot softer. The other one to add to your list is lead.
I have a ring made from Tungsten Carbide. It is 15 or so years old and it does not have any sign of a scratch on it. If you are sad when you scratch your ring, you should get a ring made from Tungsten Carbide.
Tin and copper makes brass. I would be interesting to see the results for it.
Cool video, great educational demo. Metals are ductile (squishy).
Mind Satisfying and relaxing video...Love From India 🇮🇳♥👏
I love youur tests. I'd like to see Nickel, if its possible
Pretty good....Thanks very much....!
Thats interesting. I would like to see a similar sized cube of polycarbonate being crushed. That stuff was used for protection and seems to be really strong.
Beautifull video
I was really hoping you’d press all three of those together
I thought the press was having trouble when it first stopped, but then it went on to just flatten the cube like it was nothing :D
7:30 That wasn't just an ordinary penguin, it was actually Pingu, -- Pingu the penguin. 🐧 "!Noot-Noot!"
hey, I had an idea for you, what if you made a challenge where people could send you a 3d model designed to fit inside a specific amount of space, you get the models 3d printed, and then you crush them on the press to have a sort of design competition where the strongest print with the least material wins?
I hear that opening music every time I close my eyes
Would be cool to see gold bits smashed together like you did with the bolts
Can you do pure gold next time? It's probably not much stronger than play doh
Pure gold is very soft. Like lead. You can easily smash it with a hammer
Damn, that press is raising the force so fast and effortlessly that it's kinda hard to comprehend it. I look at that gold cube start deforming couple of seconds after the beginning, and think "wow, that's kinda weak" - meanwhile the press' dial read 1,5t already - that's weight of a good sedan.
Would be interesting to know how the material temperature raised after compression.
For end of video extra content,
make a LEGO monster out of playdough.
It's a single 2x3 LEGO brick, one of the most dangerous items known to man.
*Suggestion for similar crushing in the future:* put some measuring block, piece, etc. next to the material to be pressed so you can see when to stop. Of course it's not precise as there are reaction times and other variables but would be more accurate as current method where it's simply a guess.
Even more hi-tech version would be where there is small button that when the press presses it disconnects the power, operator being there to stop if something goes wrong naturally.
Gold is a pretty neat material. It's the most ductile pure metal, and can be drawn down to a single-atom wire under the right conditions.
Very interesting video.
Pure gold vs. Pure silver vs pure copper would be interesting. Then see if you can make super thin gold leaf using pure gold and press.
God I love this channel
This really illustrates the malleability of these materials.
I like the way the squished cubes appear to levitate when they're stacked on top of each other.
If you stop pressing, heat it to red, cool it, and continue pressing, you can crush it without cracks.
There should be no limit to the pressure it can hold, as the surface will increase indefinitely.
I've heard of sugar and cocaine being referred to as white gold, but never knew white gold was actually a thing.
There is also something called rose gold.
White gold is made of a mixture of pure gold and white metals such as nickel, silver and palladium, usually with a rhodium coating. White gold is real but it's not made entirely of gold. The other metals help to strengthen the gold and increase its durability for jewelry.
Rose gold is a blend, or an alloy of pure 24 karat yellow gold, copper and silver.
