Electrostem™ II Valve (DA-412) SRP 29.95 An exciting valve that will revolutionize the industry.
Flexinol® is used to proportionally control the airflow. Is uses a standard Schraeder valve core or stem like those found in automobile tires. Generally, these stems are "on" or "off" depending on whether the internal stem cap is "open" or "closed". The Electrostem™ Valve with Flexinol® actuator wires can very gradually open or close these caps to produce proportionally controlled airflow. |

Bendsoft™ (DA-414) SRP $19.95 The Flexinol® actuator wire Bendsoft™ is used for micro miniature animation in small animated figures, steerable catheters, soft grippers and other devices. The Bendsoft™ works by allowing the Flexinol® actuator wire to contract along one side of a non-compressing strip of plastic. This is a small but effective demonstration of the power of Flexinol®!

Latchbox (DA-419) SRP $19.95 One of the best uses for Flexinol® actuator wire is in electronic locks. The Flexinol® actuator wire provides a small but strong alternative to motors or solenoids. The Latchbox is an example of a simple and low cost latch. The box latches closed and when activated electrically, the small diameter Flexinol® actuator wire contracts opening the latch and opening the lid. This is only one demonstration of one of the many possibilities Flexinol® actuator wire has in latches! What can you dream up?

Switch Cover (DA-416) SRP $19.95 This device shows how easy and versatile Flexinol® actuator wires can be to solve problems! A little Flexinol® added to a typical push button switch can give you: A Simple Relay, An Electromechanical Oscillator, A Circuit Protection Device, or a Hot Cut Off to ensure the Flexinol® is not overheated and ruined during testing and design work. The possibilities are only limited by your imagination!
