Abstract (en)

The invention generally relates to a method for manufacturing a composite wire, a composite wire manufactured by such method, and a medical device comprising such composite wire. The composite wire comprises an alloy comprising Cr, Ni, Mo and Co. The method for manufacturing the composite wire comprises the steps of providing a first part in form of a rod, providing a second part in form of a tube surrounding the rod at least partially to form a rod-tube assembly, providing a clad part in form of a cylinder surrounding the rod-tube assembly at least partially to form a cladded rod-tube assembly, and extruding the cladded rod-tube assembly to form the composite wire. The second part comprises an alloy comprising the following alloy components: a) Cr in the range from about 10 to about 30 wt. %; b) Ni in the range from about 20 to about 50 wt. %; c) Mo in the range from about 2 to about 20 wt. %; d) Co in the range from about 10 to about 50 wt. %; wherein the A1 content of the alloy is less than about 0.01 wt. %; wherein each wt. % is based on the total weight of the alloy.
