New England Wire Technologies

Medical Braids

We stock stainless steel wire from .0015” to .010” in diameter and flat wire from .0005” x .002” to .005” x .030”; our capabilities include 8, 12, 16, 24, 32 and 48 carrier braids in hard or soft temper. Braid configurations having angles from 20° to 70°, diameters from .030” to 1.00” and coverage up to 95% are quite common. We excel at multiple-strand, fine wire stainless steel braids for flexible fiber optic scopes.

Braided material is typically fine wire or flat wire in all tempers; however, we also have the capability to braid high-strength fiber and monofilament. In partnership with our subsidiary, New England Tubing Technologies, we are proud to have the most extensive braiding and wire handling capabilities to be found at any custom cable and tubing manufacturer anywhere.
