Features:

• one foot long piece of nickel-titanium alloy that can flex and contract when a specific amount of heat or current is applied to it.
• low temperature form (martensitic) and its stronger, high temperature form (austenite).
• When the Muscle Wire is in its martensitic form, it can be formed and bent into different shapes.
• when an electrical current of ~1.5A is applied to the wire, or is heated to ~100C it reverts to austenite form and recovers its previous shape with great force.

specifications:

• Length: 305mm
• Diameter: 0.30mm
• Current Required for Austenite Form: 1.5A
• Pull Force: 2.83lbs
• Resistance: 0.31 ohms/inch
