Description


DISCONTINUED - Looking for a finger magnet? Consider the m0422a--with just under double the reactive potential in a smaller package, it's a good choice.

The Titan is the world's best medical grade 2 pure titanium encased biomagnet implant. We're so proud of Titan that it comes with a lifetime warranty! Conceived of in our community forum, it was previously crowdfunded in batches, but no longer! Now it's a regular retail product!

Warning

WARNING This product is definitely a dangerous thing. While our implant products have undergone several quality checks during manufacture and have been put through a battery of tests, nothing has been certified by any government regulatory agency for implantation or use inside the human body. Your personal decision to purchase and ultimately the safe use of this device is strictly your responsibility and at your own risk.

MRI COMPATIBILITY WARNING The Titan and all magnetic implant products should be removed before any MRI or magnetic imaging procedure. While our x-series transponders have tested as compatible with MRI machines up to 7T field strength, all magnetic products are incompatible with MRI machines and procedures.

Titan Pure Titanium Biomagnet

There are other sensing biomagnets on the market, but none of them have durable medical grade pure titanium (grade 2) and a lifetime warranty like the Titan. Not sure what biomagnets are all about? Read our basic technology primer!

The magnetic core of the Titan is a 3mm diameter × 2mm thick NdFeB sintered disc with no coating (no nickel or gold, just pure magnet). That core is encased inside machined grade 2 titanium, creating a disc measuring 4.5mm in diameter × 2.8mm thick. The top and bottom surfaces are limited to 0.4mm thick to encourage better lifting strength, even though the design is meant for sensing with high field strength and low mass for minimal inertia. The field strength of the magnetic core is N52, and Gauss measurements taken from the fully encased Titan average 2.9kG (2900G) at the top and bottom.

What Can This Magnet Do
  • Sense electromagnetic fields and alternating current via tactile nerve activation
  • Haptic feedback from motors, transformers, and other EM sources
  • Detect magnetic polarity of other magnets
  • Lift small ferromagnetic objects (sensing-first design — not a strong lifter)
  • Backed by a lifetime guarantee against casing failure or mechanical breakdown
What This Magnet Cannot Do
  • NOT MRI compatible — must be removed before any MRI or magnetic imaging procedure
  • Not designed as a strong lifting magnet — sensing-optimized form factor with low mass for low inertia
  • Cannot be used near sensitive electronics like pacemakers or insulin pumps
Titan Specifications
  • N52 grade neodymium iron boron magnet
  • 3mm diameter × 2mm thick magnetic disc core
  • 4.5mm × 2.8mm grade 2 titanium casing
  • Sterilized in low temp gas plasma chamber
  • Lifetime guarantee
Lifetime Guarantee

Your Titan biomagnet is guaranteed to never have a casing failure or mechanical breakdown of any kind. As long as it is installed in your body, the robust titanium casing will remain intact, keeping the magnetic core safe and secure. If you ever have problems with the manufacturing quality of your Titan biomagnet, like all Dangerous Things implantable products, you will get a free replacement. Even if (FSM forgive) you get into an accident that damages your Titan biomagnet, return the chunks to us for a free replacement.

Clinical Preparation

DO NOT AUTOCLAVE THE TITAN. The process of steam sterilization in an autoclave generates enough heat that the magnetic components of the Titan are brought over their Curie limit. This will permanently damage the magnet's ability to generate a strong magnetic field. The Titan ships inside a standard sterilization pouch which has been sterilized in our low temperature gas plasma commercial sterilization chamber, complete with indicator strip and lot label with processing date.

Past Titan Campaigns

Titan was originally sold in batches through crowdfunding campaigns. The first campaign was fully funded within 8 hours, and we shipped the first batch of Titans to our happy Hall of Titans backers in January 2021. The success of those early campaigns generated several forum threads packed with photos and backer information:
