About Kellogg's Research Labs Nitinol Micro Spring Body

Kellogg's Research Labs is the world's leading supplier of nitinol springs. With more than 100,000 part numbers in stock, the spring that you need is in stock and ready to ship. Kellogg's Research Labs Micro Springs are very small linear actuators meant for small scale robotics applications. The company will cut them to whatever length you need at no charge or ship a continuous length so that you can cut them as needed. Nitinol, also known as Ni-Ti is one of several shape memory alloys available. The shape memory effect comes from the mixture of nickel and titanium transferring between the martensite and austenite phases of crystal structure. Basically, what this looks like is you have a wire that you can straighten, bend into any shape, mash, etc. and then place it in hot water to watch it come back to its original shape. The uses for this are endless. Uses include robotics, heat engines, science projects, practical jokes, artery stents for a bypass surgery, the only limitation is your creativity. Nitinol springs are shipped as a continuous length to maximize the usability of the spring by allowing the end user to cut the springs to their ideal size--saving both time and money.
