Stainless steel wire for the manufacture of springs has gained considerable ground over, for example, copper and unalloyed steel and even plastic in some cases. Good mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, long life, appearance and environmental friendliness in terms of its ability for recycling, have all combined to increase consumption of stainless steel, particularly for small diameter wire. |

|
A new wire coating for all heading alloys has been designed to perform with high efficiency, improve heading tool life and eliminate the cost and environmental problems associated with the emission and disposal of nitric acid used in copper cleaning operations. |
|
| |
|
A new specialty alloy candidate for fracture fixation devices and implanted orthopedic devices for hips, knees and other joints has been developed by Carpenter Technology Corp., Reading, PA, for consideration by medical and surgical users in Europe. |

High strength stainless steels and age-hardenable superalloys are rapidly gaining favor with designers in the aerospace, military and other industries who are challenged to meet higher performance expectations and stringent regulatory requirements at lowest life cycle cost. |
|
| |
|
Traditional methods of dealing with the venting problem have had limited effect. Trapped gases still cause quality problems such as burning, produced by compressed gases that impede the flow of molten resin in a cavity pocket, and short shots, caused by low injection pressure and /or gases trapped in pocket areas of the tool. |
|
| |
|
Hardenable stainless steel alloys are a common choice for manufacturers that cold form high strength stainless steel fasteners. These alloys, however, have limitations. While the hardenable stainless grades have the strength needed for intended applications, they have lacked either the formability or the corrosion resistance of the non-hardenable alloys. |
