SoluMag® FW Magnesium Alloy

SoluMag® FW is specifically designed to dissolve in very low chloride environments.

SoluMag® FW offers significant advantages over other dissolving materials in that it retains super-dissolving properties in conditions where other dissolvables would not function.

This lightweight alloy is available as balls, extruded rods, bars, tubes and profiles to produce components that require strength and ductility in demanding environments as well as a controlled dissolution rate that will effectively dissolve the component in a known time.
