Elgiloy springs have long been recognized for their exceptional performance capabilities, fatigue resistance, and increased durability. These properties offer engineers several choices when designing custom spring and wire form strategies. Such characteristics serve varying industrial needs and make the material ideal for critical applications in many demanding environments, especially medical applications.
Elgiloy wire is a high-performance material widely regarded for its applications, particularly in manufacturing springs and wire form components. Dubbed a ‘super-alloy,’ Elgiloy is a type of stainless steel known for its unique mechanical and chemical properties.
By function and design, industrial springs and wire forms are indispensable mechanical components utilized in countless applications. Every industry has its own unique requirements for springs in terms of size, shape, material, load-bearing capacity, resilience, and durability.
Types of spring materials used in spring fabrication vary depending on the design and application requirements. Principally, these materials consist of spring steels, a group of medium-to-high carbon, low alloy steels characterized by their excellent yield strength—an important material property that allows a spring to bend, twist, compress or extend and return to its original… Read more »
A medical stylet is a small, malleable plastic-coated metal rod most commonly used in endotracheal (ETT) devices for intubation. They are a medical component that is placed inside an endotracheal tube to reinforce or pre-shape the lumen of the tube to aid in directing the tube towards the laryngeal inlet. As with any medical device… Read more »
