Product Overview

4J45 alloy wire is a controlled thermal expansion Fe-Ni alloy consisting of approximately 45% nickel. It is engineered for applications requiring dimensional stability and hermetic sealing, particularly where thermal compatibility with glass or ceramic is crucial. This material is ideal for use in semiconductor lead frames, sensor housings, and high-reliability electronic packaging.
