Our custom Nitinol Wire is a superstar in aerospace manufacturing, bringing unique properties that make complex components perform like never before. Nitinol, a nickel-titanium alloy, is famous for its superelasticity and shape memory—meaning it can bend, stretch, and snap back to its original shape, even under extreme conditions. We tailor our wire to meet the exact needs of aerospace applications, with a nickel content of 54.5-57.0% and transformation temperatures ranging from -50°C to 80°C. Whether it’s actuators in satellites or vibration dampers in aircraft, our Nitinol wire delivers unmatched reliability.
What makes our product stand out? It’s all about customization and performance. We fine-tune tensile strength (900-1400 MPa), fatigue life, and thermal stability to match your specific project requirements. Our wire is built to handle the harsh environments of aerospace, from cryogenic temperatures in space to the intense heat of jet engines. With a smooth surface finish and rigorous quality control, we ensure every batch meets the strict standards of aerospace manufacturing, giving you a product you can trust for mission-critical components.

Our custom Nitinol wire is a carefully crafted alloy of nickel (54.5-57.0%) and titanium, with optional trace elements like iron or cobalt to tweak performance. The magic lies in its superelasticity and shape memory, which let it deform and recover its shape with precision. The transformation temperature range (-50°C to 80°C) is tailored to activate these properties in aerospace environments, whether it’s a cold satellite orbit or a hot engine compartment. Compared to materials like stainless steel or aluminum, our Nitinol wire is a game-changer. Stainless steel is strong but lacks shape memory, making it less versatile for dynamic components. Aluminum is lightweight but can’t match Nitinol’s durability or flexibility under stress.
Our wire’s corrosion resistance is top-notch, standing up to moisture, chemicals, and extreme temperatures. Its high fatigue life ensures it can endure millions of cycles without failing—think of an actuator moving constantly in a satellite. With an elongation range of 8-20%, our wire balances flexibility and strength, making it ideal for applications like deployable structures or sensors. We also offer customization options, adjusting properties like stiffness or transformation temperature to fit your exact needs, ensuring peak performance in every use.
