Starc Metals is a well-respected manufacturer and supplier of Nitinol Shape Memory Bars based in Canberra, Australia. We take pride in offering top-notch nickel-titanium alloy products that are designed for high-performance applications. Our Nitinol bars are celebrated for their remarkable shape memory and superelastic qualities, which enable them to revert to their original shape after being deformed. With outstanding corrosion resistance, biocompatibility, and durability, these bars are perfect for industries that demand excellence. At Starc Metals, we focus on precision manufacturing, ensuring consistent mechanical properties and strict control over composition, making our Nitinol Shape Memory Bars ideal for aerospace, medical, and automotive applications that require smart material performance.
Typically, Nitinol Shape Memory Bars are made up of about 55–56% nickel and 44–45% titanium, with slight variations that influence transformation temperature and elasticity. Mechanically, this alloy boasts a tensile strength ranging from approximately 895 to 1900 MPa, a yield strength between 195 and 690 MPa, and an elongation of up to 15%. Its standout features include the shape memory effect, superelasticity, high damping capacity, and excellent resistance to corrosion. Nitinol retains its functional properties across a broad temperature range, making it perfect for applications that need both flexibility and the ability to recover after deformation.
