Fort Wayne Metals’ SLT medical grade wire combines excellent straightness and torqueability, directly off the spool or when cut to length. SLT wire eliminates the need for further straightening operations. SLT wire offers properties unique from other spooled wire by providing straightness directly off the spool with a deviation of less than .020" in 12" (0.5 mm in 300 mm). Due to the straightness of the wire, only negligible whip is experienced in the distal end when torque is applied to the proximal end. SLT wire also offers the ease of grinding to very small diameters depending on the type of grinding processes used.
