ex, industrial ear piercing, industrial nipple piercings, etc...

Thoughts?

Definition from Wikipedia

An industrial piercing (North America), also known as a scaffold piercing (UK/Ireland) or construction piercing, is any ear piercing that consists of two pierced holes connected with a single piece of jewelry

Industrial piercing is not synonymous with barbell piercing, I think that's where your confusion is coming from. A nipple barbell is just that.
Anyone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, I don't know anything about piercings this was just what I gathered from a few minutes of googling.
