Nitinol Guide Wires Industrial Applications Users
Nitinol guide wires are slender precision components made from shape memory alloy (SMA), combining nickel and titanium in near‑equiatomic proportions. They are widely used in industrial scenarios requiring high flexibility, kink resistance, torque transmission, and access into narrow, curved, or confined spaces.
Nitinol (nickel-titanium alloy) guide wires with superelasticity and shape-memory effect are widely used in industrial fields that require high flexibility, kink resistance, and precise insertion. Major industrial users include:
