is surgical steel magnetic?
Is surgical steel, specifically the type used in body piercings, magnetic or slightly magnetic?
2 Answers
It isn’t magnetic, no. Surgeons use this metal in joint replacements.. Imagine if someone walked by a big magnet with a knee replacement their knee would break! It is taken into consideration that anything put into your body shouldn’t have negative effects, magnetism being a big one.
Not to worry.
