A few questions to be sure

Is there a battery, chip or electronics in the item?

How to do it

Lukewarm, 30–40 °C

Run titanium on its own. One drop of mild dish soap, then rinse and dry thoroughly.

With these answers we do not recommend the ultrasonic cleaner, so there is no how-to.

Pick your cleaner to see if it fits, which setting to use and what its manual says.

Why

Titanium instruments in healthcare are routinely cleaned in ultrasonic baths. Manufacturers write that titanium and stainless steel should not be run in the same batch.

Watch out for

  • Not at the same time as steel
  • A brushed surface can get small shiny spots if parts rub – lay it flat
