Why is it important?

Recent advances in the manufacture and processing of high purity NiTinol 60 (60 wt% Ni–40 wt% Ti) has spurred a renewed interest in the use of this alloy for structural and mechanical component applications. NiTinol 60 (60NiTi) exhibits excellent corrosion resistance, can be hardened to high levels, has a low elastic modulus and extensive elastic range that imparts high mechanical contact load resilience. It is dimensionally stable, has good bio-compatibility, can be machined into precision components and is non-magnetic. This unique set of characteristics make the intermetallic 60NiTi suitable for a wide variety of applications in the marine, medical, aerospace and food processing industries.
