MR Conditional What does this mean?

MR Safe – an item that poses no known hazards in all MRI environments. Using the terminology, “MR Safe” items are non-conducting, non-metallic, and non-magnetic items such as a plastic Petri dish. An item may be determined to be MR Safe by providing a scientifically based rationale rather than test data.

MR Conditional – an item that has been demonstrated to pose no known hazards in a specified MR environment with specified conditions of use. “Field” conditions that define the MR environment include static magnetic field strength, spatial gradient magnetic field, dB/dt (time rate of change of the magnetic field), radio frequency (RF) fields, and specific absorption rate (SAR). Additional conditions, including specific configurations of the item (e.g., the routing of leads used for a neurostimulation system), may be required.

MR Unsafe – An item that is known to pose hazards in all MRI environments. MR Unsafe items include magnetic items such as a pair of ferromagnetic scissors.

The Titanium Sledge Hammer is crafted with a robust 2.5" titanium head weighing just 1 lb., offering a balance of strength and lightweight control. Designed specifically for use around MRI equipment, this precision-machined, non-magnetic tool ensures reliable performance in delicate environments where minimizing interference with sensitive MRI products is critical. With an overall length of 12", it delivers optimal leverage while remaining compact enough to maneuver effectively in tight or controlled spaces.

Equipped with a high-quality wooden handle, the sledge hammer provides a shock-absorbent and ergonomic grip for comfortable use over extended periods. Engineered with non-magnetic and hypoallergenic titanium, it eliminates unwanted reactions with magnetic fields, making it the perfect tool for use within MRI environments. The hypoallergenic properties also ensure the hammer is safe for individuals with sensitive skin, further enhancing its user-friendly appeal in specialized medical settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can this titanium sledge hammer be used safely in MRI rooms?

Yes. The hammer is built with a non-magnetic titanium head, so it can be used in MRI environments without being pulled toward the magnet or disrupting the magnetic field. For facilities that need a dependable MRI-appropriate striking tool for construction, adjustments, or controlled-force work near the bore, this lightweight 1 lb titanium head provides the right balance of power and safety.

2. What types of MRI maintenance or install tasks is this sledge hammer useful for?

The compact 12" length and 2.5" titanium head make it great for equipment positioning, frame adjustments, anchoring hardware, and controlled tapping during MRI room installations or upgrades. Its smaller size offers precise control in tight spaces where a full-size hammer would be risky or hard to handle, especially around sensitive MRI components.

3. How durable is the titanium head and wood handle for frequent use in hospital environments?

Titanium resists corrosion, denting, and wear, even with repeated striking and regular hospital cleaning. The wooden handle absorbs shock well, making it comfortable for longer tasks. For MRI teams, engineers, and contractors who need a long-lasting, non-magnetic sledge hammer that holds up under daily use, this design offers both strength and user comfort without introducing ferrous risk.
