Nitinol is a shape memory alloy actuator wires. Its operation resembles that of a muscle; it contracts when heated. Many times an electric current is passed though the wire to heat (ohmic heating) the wire to its transition temperature. When the electric current is removed, it cools and can easily be stretched back it its original length. Nitinol wire is sold in five standard diameters; .006, .008, .010, .012 and .015 dia. Priced provide is per linear foot.
