Fine Wire
Our efforts in specialty and fine wire focus directly on the ever-increasing requirements for high performance products at smaller sizes. From traditional spring materials in beryllium copper, to alternative beryllium-free systems, our specialty and fine wire products bring together our existing alloy and conductor lines to offer unique combinations of strength, conductivity, formability, and resistance to relaxation or softening. With careful consideration of these attributes and a complete range of available plating solutions, we can meet the requirements of a wide variety of parts from electronic contacts to mechanical springs.
