Non-magnetic MRI Tool Kit with Corrosion Resistant Tools and Ergonomic Rubber Handle for Laboratory Equipment Servicing

Jovvi’s titanium tools begin not as finished goods, but as titanium sponge – the porous form of titanium produced from mineral ore (ilmenite or rutile). This sponge is melted with aluminum and vanadium in a vacuum arc furnace to create Grade 5 Ti-6Al-4V ingots.

From Ingot to Bar Stock:

1. Ingot is forged and rolled into bar stock (round or hexagonal)
2. Bar stock is annealed to relieve internal stress
3. Ultrasonic testing checks for internal voids or inclusions
4. Each bar receives a heat number – the foundation of traceability

What the Mill Test Report (MTR) Confirms:

• Titanium content: ≥90% (typically 90–91% by weight)
• Aluminum: 5.5–6.75%
• Vanadium: 3.5–4.5%
• Iron: <0.25% (critical for non-magnetic property)
• Oxygen: <0.2%
• No ferromagnetic inclusions detectable

Incoming Verification at Jovvi:

Every bar stock shipment is sampled and tested with X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometer. The XRF confirms titanium percentage and screens for ferromagnetic contamination (iron, nickel, cobalt). Any bar failing the ≥90% Ti threshold is rejected and returned to supplier.

Why This Matters for Your MRI:

A tool with 85% titanium and 5% iron may still be weakly ferromagnetic. Jovvi’s ≥90% specification with <0.25% iron ensures magnetic susceptibility remains below χ < 5 × 10⁻⁶ – safe for 7T MRI.

Laser Mark Link:

Each finished tool receives a batch number that traces back to the original heat number of the bar stock. Enter the batch number on Jovvi‘s portal to view the MTR.

Factory commitment:

“We don’t guess about titanium content. We test every batch before machining, and we laser-mark the proof on every tool.”
