Nitinol Mandrel & Wire: Superior Flexibility for Advanced Applications
Our factory specializes in manufacturing high-performance nitinol mandrels and wire. We provide robust, reliable solutions for industries demanding precision and advanced material properties.
Understanding Nitinol Material
Nitinol is a unique metal alloy, blending nickel and titanium. This special composition gives the material two remarkable traits: shape memory and superelasticity.
A nitinol component can return to its original shape when heated. It can also bend and flex far beyond ordinary metals without staying deformed. These qualities make nitinol mandrels and wire ideal for challenging environments.
Primary Uses of Nitinol Mandrel
So, what is the purpose of a nitinol mandrel? This tool acts as an internal support spine. It is essential for bending delicate tubing and creating precise coils.
Using a nitinol mandrel prevents kinks and collapses in your workpiece. Its superior flexibility allows for tight, complex bends that rigid tools cannot achieve. This makes the nitinol mandrel a top choice for manufacturing medical catheters, aerospace tubing, and specialized springs.
Nitinol in Medical & Industrial Applications
What is nitinol mainly used for? The answer spans critical fields.
Medical Devices: Nitinol wire forms the core of guidewires and stents. Its superelasticity lets it navigate the human body safely. Stents made from nitinol can compress, travel through vessels, and then expand to their intended shape with body heat.
Aerospace & Industry: The alloy is perfect for tight-tolerance couplings, actuators, and robotic components. Its durability and fatigue resistance ensure long-term performance.
Machining Nitinol: Our Expertise
Can Nitinol be machined? Absolutely. However, machining nitinol presents challenges. It is a tough, sticky material that work-hardens rapidly.
