MR Conditional What does this mean?
MR Safe

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

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

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is a titanium universal joint used for in an MRI environment?

A titanium universal joint gives you flexible, controlled rotation when you need to reach fasteners or components at awkward angles near the magnet. Because it’s non-magnetic, you can safely use it to service coil housings, table hardware, or frame-mounted parts inside Zones III and IV without worrying about magnetic pull.

2. How does the titanium construction help when working close to the MRI bore?

Titanium has no ferromagnetic attraction, so it stays stable in high-field areas and reduces the chance of drift or pull during repairs. It also holds up well under torque, which helps when you’re trying to loosen or tighten hardware in tight, field-sensitive spaces.

3. Is the universal joint compatible with standard non-magnetic driver bits and extensions?

Yes. It’s built to pair with non-magnetic extensions and sockets commonly used in MRI service work. Most facilities keep a dedicated titanium tool set, and this joint integrates right into that workflow for angled access where a straight extension won’t cut it.

4. Can this universal joint withstand frequent cleaning in clinical or technical areas?

Titanium handles routine disinfecting without corrosion or binding. The pivot remains smooth, and the surfaces don’t degrade with common hospital cleaning agents, which is important when tools move between the scanner room and shared workspaces.

5. Do universal joints like this work for general maintenance, or are they only for MRI repairs?

They’re versatile enough for general equipment work, but their biggest value is in places where magnetic safety matters — MRI suites, coil labs, and areas with field-sensitive hardware. Many teams keep a dedicated MRI-safe toolkit to prevent accidental mix-ups with ferrous tools.
