The alloy can be made to remember a particular shape. Once a shape has been remembered, the alloy may be bent out of shape. Then returned to its original shape by heating the alloy about it transition temperature. This SME property is used in a toy called Memory Wire. You can bend the Memory Wire toy into any shape you want, then place it in hot water and the wire quickly whips itself back into shape. It is interesting to watch this wire almost magically unfold and uncoil itself back into its original shape. The Memory Wire toy is made of nitinol wire with a low transition temperature (the temperature of hot water). The force generated when the wire is reverting is surprisingly strong. One square inch of Nitinol material generates a shape returning force of + 30,000 PSI. Review: Five Stars - Excellent for an elementary school student who is interested in science! Review: I recommend finding another place to buy the same thing except ... - It does what is says, but the wire is very small.

I recommend finding another place to buy the same thing except longer, as this is very overpriced. ### ⭐ Disappointed in size *by D***. on April 30, 2019* I purchased this item to do an experiment with my students at school. I didn’t find anywhere that the length of the actual useable wire was less than 3 inches!! That was a very expensive piece of wire. I could barely twist the wire into a shape for the experiment. It does work but I really feel I was ripped off on that purchase. ## Frequently Bought Together - Nitinol Memory Wire - 2-Way Nitinol Shape Memory Alloy Spring; 0.7mm9mm15-60mm; Af 60C Mf 30C - Sci-Supply Worlds Smartest Paperclip, Memory Metal Paper Clip, Nitinol Wire Paperclip, Magic Paperclip --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/6212011-nitinol-memory-wire](https://www.desertcart.at/products/6212011-nitinol-memory-wire) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
