GAN Square-1 (Maglev, magnetic, UV)
The GAN Square-1 M UV brings GAN's full flagship engineering to the shape-shifting Square-1 — a puzzle that demands clean alignment on every turn. A 36-magnet system and MagLev tensioning deliver the kind of snappy, precise feel usually reserved for top-tier 3x3s, in a format with 11.9 trillion possible states to work through.
Why you'll like it
- Flagship tech on a Square-1: MagLev tensioning and a 36-magnet alignment system — the same class of engineering GAN puts into its best 3x3s — applied to a puzzle that rarely gets this treatment.
- Snappy, accurate turns: magnets pull each layer cleanly into position so shapes resolve crisply and lockups stay rare, even at speed.
- Dial it in, keep it there: a numbered tuning system gives you 36 distinct setups across tension and center-piece travel — note your preferred setting and return to it exactly, every time.
- Built for hard solving: reinforced internals resist pops so the cube stays together when you push the pace.
- A serious challenge: the Square-1 shifts shape as you turn, opening up 11.9 trillion possible states — far beyond a standard 3x3.
Tuning & control
- Numerical Magnetic GES: 6 gears of tension × 6 gears of center-piece travel = 36 numbered setups. You always know exactly where you are.
- Repeatable by design: every setting is numbered, so you can note your preferred feel and reset to it precisely after any adjustment.
- One-twist setup: the included tuning tool means adjusting tension or travel takes a single twist — no teardown required.
Performance & design
- 36-magnet matrix: 32 inter-piece magnets drive 30° auto-alignment for faster, more accurate positioning; 4 core magnets handle the 180° slash and snap it in instantly.
- MagLev tensioning: repelling magnets replace springs, cutting friction and spring noise for a light, quiet glide through every slash.
- Dual-foot structure: a reworked contact design adds stability over single-foot builds and, per GAN, cuts frictional resistance by 30% versus a triple-foot structure.
- Anti-pop internals: a reinforced center cap post and slide-lock splicing keep pieces seated during fast, aggressive turning.
- UV Coated finish: glossy, high-grip exterior with a honeycomb contact face that spreads lubricant evenly for a consistent feel turn after turn.
Specifications
- Puzzle type: Square-1 (shape-shifting layered puzzle)
- Magnets: 36 total (32 inter-piece + 4 core)
- Tensioning: MagLev (magnetic levitation)
- Tuning: Magnetic GES, 36 numerical settings (6 tension × 6 center travel)
- Auto-alignment: 30° layer alignment, 180° slash alignment
- Finish: UV Coated, stickerless
- Size: 54 × 54 × 56 mm
- Weight: 80 g
- Includes: dedicated tuning tool
Best for cubers who want a Square-1 that turns with the same confidence as a modern flagship 3x3.
