Your cart is empty.Simple and inexpensive, this paperclip is sure to impress! Discover the fascinating properties of Nitinol wire with this ingenious clip. Bend it (no more than 110 degrees) from its Original shape and it will magically reconfigure itself into its original shape if exposed to heat - open flame (lighter) or hot water. This paperclip exploits a property of the Nitinol metal alloy that makes it want to return to the shape it was originally formed in when produced. This property of Nitinol alloy is known as the "memory effect". This Nitinol wire paperclip is produced at a temperature of @600 Degrees Celsius and formed into the paperclip shape at that time. When you receive It, The "memory" Has already been "programmed" Into it. You can deform the paperclip (don't go to extremes here) and then heat It up with hot water or open flame (lighter). When heated, the metal magically re-forms itself into a paperclip. Way cool!

I wanted a nitinol paperclip that didn't have odd proportions or look a mess. This one, despite being on the larger side, looks good and responds quickly to temperature. Great demonstration of the material properties of nitinol, or just as a paperclip you'll never have to replace.

The device can't easily be bent from it's original shape. Once sufficient pressure is applied to marginally shift the shape, the application of heat does not restore the shape fully. Care was taken to follow instructions, no attempt to bend past 110 degress. This will not work as you expect.

...after a couple malforming it and putting in hot water, it no longer goes back to the perfect 'paper clip' shape.
