Elgiloy is a specially fabricated alloy used in wire forms and spring applications. Elgiloy is a patented cobalt-base alloy compounded of cobalt, chromium, nickel, molybdenum, manganese, beryllium, carbon and iron. It can be used as-is or heat-treated.

Elgiloy is used in orthopedic and medical devices because it is non-magnetic and does not interfere with Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). It has also been proven safe to use in contact with soft tissue and bone in long-term clinical experience.

Elgiloy Wire & Spring Properties

  • Retains Strength longer than Steel
  • Resilient Spring Wire Without Distortion
