nitinol rod

A nitinol rod is a type of special metal that can be twisted, bent, and formed into practically any shape. It consists of nickel and titanium, and it has some really nice properties. Now let's peek at what's so interesting about nitinol rod!

The Nitinol rod is a “shape memory alloy”: It can “remember” its original shape, even after it has been bent or twisted. Which is to say that if you bend cool nitinol into a new shape, it will eventually return to its original shape when you heat it up. Isn't that amazing?

The innovative uses of nitinol rod in medical devices

Thanks to its special properties, nitinol rod is commonly used in medical equipment such as stents and braces. Stents are small tubes that open blockages in arteries in the heart, and braces are used to straighten teeth. In such devices, nitinol rod is an ideal choice, as it can be bent into the correct shape and will remain there once it is heated.
