The 3J21 Elgiloy Alloy Tube is a cobalt-chromium-nickel alloy designed for durable aerospace and medical tubing. Known as Elgiloy, its composition provides superelasticity, high strength, and excellent corrosion resistance, performing reliably from -60°C to +200°C. Processed through cold-drawing and heat treatment, this tube offers a high strength-to-weight ratio and outstanding fatigue resistance. With a low thermal expansion coefficient (10–12 × 10⁻⁶/°C), density of ~8.3 g/cm³, and electrical resistivity of ~1.0 μΩ·m, it’s ideal for demanding applications.
We provide 3J21 alloy tubes in various sizes and wall thicknesses, with customizable compositions to meet your specific requirements, ensuring they’re ready for your aerospace and medical projects.
