Elgiloy & Phynox Spring Manufacturing

Discover Filame's production capabilities in Elgiloy & Phynox Spring Manufacturing.

Elgiloy® alloy, also known as Phynox, is a Cobalt-Chromium-Nickel (Co41Cr16Ni15) (AMS5833 and AMS5834) super alloy which exhibits high strength, good fatigue life, good ductibility and good mechanical properties at ambient temperature. It has also an excellent corrosion resistance in numerous environments. It is not magnetic.

Elgiloy® alloy is a registered trademark of Combined Metals Company LLC.

Elgiloy® alloy can have spring quality. In this case it must undergo a heat treatment at 520° for 5 hours.

Elgiloy® alloy is used in particular for making wire springs and more particularly for sealing gaskets. It is also used in the field of medical devices and more particularly in dental devices. Finally, it is used in the petrochemical, aeronautical and marine industries.

Filame uses Elgiloy® alloy in wire form, for example for sealing gaskets springs and for its customers in the medical and dental devices industry (non spring wire).

Questions & Answers

01 What are the main applications of Elgiloy (Phynox) parts made by Filame ?
Elgiloy is widely used in safety-critical medical implants, aerospace springs, and oil/gas valves due to its biocompatibility, extreme corrosion resistance, and high fatigue life. We manufacture custom flat springs and wire springs from it.
02 Does Elgiloy require heat treatment after forming ?
Yes, to achieve its maximum mechanical properties, Elgiloy must undergo aging heat treatment at approximately 480°C to 520°C for up to 5 hours. Filame manages this thermal treatment in-house.
