Product Description

Phynox wire, also known as Elgiloy or Cobalt-Chromium-Nickel-Molybdenum alloy wire, is a high-performance, corrosion-resistant material with exceptional mechanical strength, fatigue resistance, and biocompatibility. This alloy is commonly used in medical, aerospace, and industrial applications due to its superior elasticity, non-magnetic properties, and high tensile strength.

The unique composition of CoCr20Ni15Mo (Cobalt-Chromium-Nickel-Molybdenum) ensures excellent resistance to wear, oxidation, and extreme environments, making it an ideal choice for spring applications, orthodontic wires, stents, precision instruments, and aerospace components.

Manufactured under strict quality standards, Phynox wire undergoes precision cold drawing, annealing, and chemical surface purification to achieve high dimensional accuracy and surface cleanliness. The wire is available in various diameters and tensile strengths, with custom options available for specialized applications.
