Frequently Asked Questions

What does bleeding a lighter mean and why is it important?

Bleeding a lighter means releasing the trapped air and residual gas from the fuel tank before refilling. Over time, air accumulates in the tank and mixes with butane, causing weak flames, misfires, or inconsistent ignition. Using the 2mm bleeder tip of the TitanTool® to fully empty the tank before each refill ensures a clean fill of pure butane and significantly improves lighter performance and longevity.

Which lighters is the TitanTool® compatible with?

The TitanTool® is compatible with any butane lighter that has a standard refill valve (for bleeding) and an adjustment screw (for flame height). This covers the vast majority of quality cigar lighters including all Mantis® lighters. The three adjuster tips (4mm, 5mm, 6mm) cover the most common adjustment screw sizes across different lighter brands.

What is Grade 5 titanium?

Grade 5 titanium (Ti-6Al-4V) is the most widely used titanium alloy, known for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and durability. It is used in aerospace, medical, and high-performance applications. In the TitanTool®, it ensures the tips are strong enough to apply precise torque without bending or wearing, even with regular use.

Is the acrylic stand included?

Yes — every TitanTool® comes with a sleek acrylic desktop stand that holds the tool upright for display and easy access. It makes the TitanTool® as much a desk accessory as a functional instrument.
