MENZANIUM® is a nickel-free* stainless steel alloy, fabricated in a patented high pressure melting process replacing allergenic components of nickel by manganese and nitrogen. Compared to conventional stainless steel wires, corrosion resistance and breaking strength are increased. Wire is available in two versions hard (1400-1600 N/mm²) and spring hard (1800-2000 N/mm²).
