Material Type: NiCr A286
Material Group: Stainless Steel Wire
Cold drawn and precipitation hardened, NiCr A286 stainless steel springs offer excellent corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures. This Nickel-Chromium alloy with the addition of aluminum to give outstanding resistance to oxidation and other forms of high temperature corrosion with the ability to maintain high mechanical properties at elevated temperatures. A286 springs are used in high strength applications in temperatures up to 950°F (510°C).
Spring Engineers designs and manufactures custom NiCr A286 material springs, including compression, extension, and torsion springs, built to meet specific engineering and performance requirements.
