Description
Shape Memory Effect: “Shape Memory” describes the restoration of the original shape of a plastically deformed sample upon heating.
Superelastic Effect: An elastic (reversible) responses to an applied temperature, caused by a phase transformation between the austenitic and martensitic phases of a crystal.
Nitinol is a metal alloy, it exhibits two closely related and unique properties: shape memory and superelasticity. We provide both types of nitinol rod.

Key words: Superelastic alloy rod, shape memory alloy rod, nickel titanium alloy rod, shape memory alloy, Ti-Ni alloy rod
Edgetech Industries LLC manufactures nitinol rod from various grades of nickel titanium alloy commonly used in medical applications as well for other various applications. Medical grade nitinol material comprises nickel and titanium in nearly equal atomic weight percentages; per ASTM F2063, a nickel content of 54.5-57 wt% is specified for use in surgical implants. Nitinol with different compositions and phase transformation temperature can be used for other applications.
