Custom Nitinol Hypotube Manufacturer for Medical Innovation

What Is Nitinol?

Nitinol is a high-performance, smart metal alloy made from nearly equal parts nickel and titanium. What makes Nitinol remarkable is its ability to return to a preset shape after deformation. This property—known as the Shape Memory Effect (SME)—makes it perfect for advanced medical devices. Biocompatible and highly corrosion-resistant, Nitinol hypotubes are widely used inside the human body, delivering unmatched flexibility, reliability, and endurance.

How Does Nitinol “Remember” Its Shape?

Nitinol changes its internal crystal structure depending on temperature or stress. When cooled, it enters the martensite phase, becoming highly flexible. Upon warming, it returns to its original shape in the austenite phase—as if it “remembers” its form. This transformation enables precise, repeatable movement, making Nitinol hypotubes ideal for implants, delivery systems, and minimally invasive tools.

Precision Laser-Cut Nitinol Hypotubes for Medical Devices

We specialize in custom Nitinol hypotubes using advanced laser cutting techniques. Whether you’re designing micro catheters or complex slotted structures, our laser systems deliver clean, precise cuts with no thermal damage. We produce hypotubes in diameters ranging from 0.2 mm to 5.0 mm, all with ultra-smooth finishes that ensure safety and performance in demanding clinical environments.

Medical-Grade Material & Quality Assurance

All our Nitinol hypotubes are crafted from certified medical-grade Nitinol in compliance with ASTM F2063. Each batch undergoes rigorous testing for chemical composition, transformation temperature, and mechanical strength. Our tubes are safe for MRI use, fully ISO 13485 certified, and come with complete material traceability. Biocompatibility testing to ISO 10993 ensures that the material is safe for long-term implantation.

Applications of Nitinol Hypotube

Our products serve a wide range of advanced medical systems, including:

• Catheters – Steerable, kink-resistant navigation for cardiac and neurovascular procedures

• Stents & Delivery Systems – Expandable scaffolds to restore blood flow

• Guidewires – Flexible, torqueable wires for navigating complex anatomy

• Endoscopic Instruments – Precision tools for minimally invasive surgeries

• Neuro Devices – Microtubes used in stroke and aneurysm treatments

• Drug Delivery Systems – Controlled-release tubing for targeted therapies
