ALLVAR

ALLVAR Alloys are the world’s first negative thermal expansion alloys. These materials passively shrink when heated and expand when cooled compensating for the CTE mismatch between other components. We make constant force-load washers and spacers for fasteners used in cryogenic assemblies. These washers expand while other materials contract in order to keep a consistent force-load on a bolt. We also manufacture custom components of material to meet specific designs. Want to learn more? As experts in these materials, we are happy to help determine if the material is a good fit for your application.
