Magnetic Haptic Coins
Magnetic coins use attraction and repulsion to create resistance, snap points and a controlled return feel. The interaction can range from subtle and smooth to stronger, more pronounced magnetic feedback.

HAPTIC COIN GUIDE
Compact Feedback, Magnetic Snaps & Ratchet Clicks
Haptic coins are compact fidgets built around repeatable tactile feedback in a coin-sized or puck-like form. Depending on the design, that feedback can come from magnets, ratchets, stepped push-pull movement or a combination of several mechanisms.
TitanFidget's haptic coin collection focuses on small EDC-friendly designs for users who prefer short, deliberate movements rather than long slider travel or continuous spinner rotation. Each model can feel noticeably different depending on its resistance, click definition, sound and construction.

Types of Haptic Coins
Ratchet Haptic Coins
Ratchet designs divide movement into clearly defined steps. They are a good fit if you prefer crisp mechanical progression and audible click-by-click feedback instead of a smooth glide.
Hybrid & Multi-Mode Coins
Some haptic coins combine magnetic and ratchet systems or add push-pull, pop-coin or secondary mechanical actions. These designs provide more than one feedback style in the same compact form.
How to Choose a Haptic Coin
| Type | Main Feel | Sound | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Magnetic Coin | Snap + resistance | Low to moderate | Smooth repeatable feedback |
| Ratchet Coin | Stepped clicks | Moderate | Crisp mechanical feedback |
| Push-Pull Coin | Short linear travel | Variable | Compact repetitive movement |
| Multi-Mode Coin | Two or more feedback styles | Variable | Switching between mechanisms |
Choose by Feedback Style
Magnetic coins usually feel smoother and more elastic, while ratchet coins provide more defined steps. If you like both styles, a hybrid design can give you magnetic resistance and mechanical clicks in one object.
Consider Sound
Haptic coins are not automatically silent. Strong magnetic snap points, ratchets and metal contact can produce audible clicks. Check the individual product page when sound matters for desk or shared-space use.
Check Size, Weight and Material
A compact diameter does not always mean a light feel. Stainless steel, alloy, titanium and other constructions can change weight and handling substantially. Exact dimensions and materials vary by model and variant, so refer to each product's confirmed specifications.
MAGNETIC VS RATCHET
Two Different Kinds of Tactile Feedback
MAGNETIC
Smooth Resistance & Snap Points
Magnetic systems shape movement through attraction and repulsion. They can feel fluid between snap points and are well suited to short, repeated motions.
RATCHET
Stepped, Mechanical Progression
Ratchet systems break movement into distinct steps. The feedback is usually more deliberate, with a clearer sense of each click or detent.
Haptic Coin FAQ
What is a haptic coin?
A haptic coin is a compact tactile fidget that uses a coin-like form and produces repeatable physical feedback through magnets, ratchets, clicks or other small mechanical movements.
Is a haptic coin the same as a fidget slider?
Not exactly. Some haptic coins use short sliding or push-pull movement, but the category is generally defined by its compact coin-like form and tactile feedback. A conventional slider usually has more obvious linear travel.
Are haptic coins quiet?
Sound depends on the mechanism. Magnetic designs can be relatively subdued, while ratchets and stronger snap points may produce clearly audible clicks.
Are all haptic coins made from metal?
No. Construction varies by model. Some haptic coins use stainless steel, alloy, titanium or mixed materials, while others may use non-metal parts. Check each product page for confirmed material information.
What is the difference between a magnetic and ratchet haptic coin?
Magnetic coins use magnetic resistance and snap points, while ratchet coins use stepped mechanical engagement. Some designs combine both systems and let you switch between feedback styles.
