About this piece

The far end of the scale

A 4 inch tungsten cube is the range taken to its logical extreme. It measures 101.6mm on each side, barely more than ten centimetres, yet weighs 19.4kg. The dimensions suggest an object you could casually move around a desk. The mass makes it something else entirely.

When density becomes the whole experience

This cube is made from 97% tungsten alloy. At 19.4kg, handling is no longer a small part of owning it: lifting and placing it safely need proper consideration, as does the surface supporting it. What makes the object compelling is the compression of those two facts: four inches and 19.4 kilograms. Nothing else in the Project Atomic tungsten range pushes that contrast further. If you want the same material at a more manageable scale, browse the smaller tungsten cubes. You can also compare metal cubes in other elements or see how much each tungsten cube weighs.

Questions

Which size tungsten cube should I choose?

Choose by the physical experience you want. The smaller cubes make tungsten’s density surprising because so much weight is concentrated into so little space; the larger cubes turn that same property into a much more substantial object. Compare the dimensions and minimum weights carefully before ordering, particularly from 2 inches upwards.

Is the cube solid tungsten all the way through?

The cube is solid high-density tungsten alloy rather than a hollow or tungsten-coated object. Project Atomic cubes use a tungsten alloy that is 95% to 97% tungsten, depending on material availability. The small amount of nickel with iron or copper allows the material to be manufactured into a precise finished cube.

Why is the weight given as a minimum?

Tungsten content can vary between 95% and 97% depending on material availability, which changes density slightly. Manufacturing tolerances can also produce small variations between individual cubes. Where a product is sold with a minimum weight, that minimum is the figure to use when comparing it with another size.

How do I look after a tungsten cube?

Handle it with clean, dry hands and wipe the surface with a soft cloth when needed. The more important consideration is its mass: larger tungsten cubes can damage desks, shelves, floors or other objects if dropped. Use the supplied packaging or stand where appropriate and take particular care when moving the heavier sizes.

What is an imperfect cube?

The Imperfect option is the same 2-inch tungsten cube with minor surface imperfections. It has the same material, dimensions and minimum weight; the difference is cosmetic. It is an option for someone who wants the physical experience of the cube and is less concerned about an immaculate display finish.

How heavy is the four-inch tungsten cube?

It weighs 19.4kg, or about 42.8lb, while measuring only 101.6mm on each side. This is the largest and heaviest tungsten cube in the range. Its compact dimensions make the mass particularly easy to underestimate, so lifting and placing it should be approached with appropriate care.

Where does the four-inch cube sit in the tungsten range?

This is the top end of the range by both size and mass. The next size down is the three-inch cube at a minimum of 8kg, so the step to 19.4kg is considerable. Choose the four-inch version if the aim is to experience the most extreme scale Project Atomic offers rather than an easily handled desk object.
