Medical & Instruments — Shaped Wire & Profile Wire

Fine shaped wire in stainless steel for components that need a repeatable cross-section at small sizes.

Instrument parts are small, handled constantly and often sterilised. That combination leaves no room for an inconsistent section or a rough surface. Fine drawn profiles give a repeatable geometry that can be assembled automatically and cleaned reliably.

We draw fine stainless profiles with documented material grade, controlled surface finish and tight tolerance at small sizes. Sections can be supplied clean and cut to length for further processing.

Typical parts we supply wire for

  • Surgical instrument components
  • Guide wire and stylet profiles
  • Precision springs and clips
  • Sensor and probe housings
  • Orthodontic and dental components

What helps us quote quickly

  • State the material standard you must certify to, and we will supply the matching documentation.
  • At very small sizes, section shape and surface finish interact — send a sample if you have one.
  • Tell us the downstream process (laser cutting, grinding, insert moulding) so we can pick a suitable temper.
