Nitinol Educational Products

Shape Memory Applications has a small number of NiTi products appropriate for educational use...

• Demo Wires: short wires to demonstrate the thermal shape memory effect
• Rings and Thuds: pairs of austenitic and martensitic rods that can be used to demonstrate the existence of the two common phase structures of Nitinol
• Demo Springs: standard compression and tension springs appropriate for a variety of experiments

Nitinol Kits

Shape Memory Applications offers two kits to teach about NiTi technology...

Nitinol Soldering Kit

• Contains everything needed to start soldering NiTi materials -- ideal for design engineers and device manufacturers.
• A site license to use Nitinol Flux 400(tm) is the heart of the Nitinol Soldering Kit. Our internal testing has proven Nitinol Flux 400 to be exceptional for soldering Nitinol materials in a variety of configurations.
• The Nitinol Soldering Kit contains Nitinol Flux 400, an instructional video, a spool of solder, and written instructions.
• The cost, including the Nitinol Flux 400 site license, is $995.00 plus tax and shipping.

Nitinol Engineering Kit

• Intended for design and development engineers and students.
