Phehlukwayo Metal, based in Cape Town, South Africa, is a trusted manufacturer and supplier of high-performance Nitinol Superelastic Bars, catering to various industrial, medical, and engineering sectors. The company is known for its precision manufacturing, advanced technology, and dedication to delivering products that meet international standards. With a strong focus on innovation, durability, and customer satisfaction, Phehlukwayo Metal ensures each Nitinol Superelastic Bar offers exceptional reliability and performance. Their products are designed to provide superior elasticity, corrosion resistance, and long service life, making them ideal for critical and demanding applications worldwide.
Nitinol Superelastic Bars are composed of approximately 54–57% Nickel (Ni) and 43–46% Titanium (Ti). This unique combination gives the material its remarkable superelastic and shape memory properties. Nitinol exhibits a tensile strength ranging from 895 to 1900 MPa and a yield strength between 195 and 690 MPa, depending on its condition. It can undergo up to 8% strain without permanent deformation, returning to its original shape after stress removal. These mechanical properties make it both flexible and extremely durable under repeated mechanical loading.
