LISTED UNDER:
Tech-Etch specializes in the etching, forming, heat treating,
and finishing of components made from metals with superior spring
characteristics. Prototypes are delivered in five days. MP35N is an ultra high
tensile strength metal with good ductility and excellent corrosion resistance
used for medical implants. Elgiloy has high strength, ductility, fatigue life
and is corrosion resistant in numerous environments. It is ideal for stiffener
bands and spring energized seals. Beryllium Copper has excellent conductivity
for battery contact and ground spring applications. It can be formed with sharp
bends and heat treated for optimum spring properties. Stainless steels are
selected for their corrosion resistance, fatigue strength, toughness, and
surgical implant suitability. Varieties include 300 and 400 series, hardened
and tempered, flapper valve grade, razor blade grade, and precipitation
hardened grade. Nitinol is a shape memory alloy with very good electrical and
mechanical properties, long fatigue life, and high corrosion resistance for
stents and retaining springs. Phos Bronze has good conductivity and cold
workability for clutch springs, diaphragms, and contact springs. A team of
experienced product engineers is ready to answer technical questions on spring
metals.
