HEAT Extreme Wire

topas H.E.A.T. Extreme - the world's first 0.016" (0.4mm) diameter coated wire

SST is proud to offer bedra’s premier line of coated Electrical Discharge Machining wires. Extreme is the world’s first EDM wire available in 0.016” (0.4mm) diameter. It was developed with new and innovative coating technologies that have been optimized for Makino’s U6 H.E.A.T. Extreme Wire EDM machine.

• New High Speed Wire designed in cooperation with Makino for the U6 H.E.A.T. Extreme wire EDM machine

• Offering a new productivity benchmark for various applications and industries offering

  • 3D printed part cut-off

  • Difficult to machine alloys such as nickel alloys

  • Tall parts

• Twice as fast as .010" Ø brass wire with similar wire consumption rates (application dependent) 

• New and innovative coating technology utilizing a unique hybrid zinc-enriched double layer offering the following machining benefits:

  • Highest possible cutting speeds

  • No increase in wire consumption rates compared to standard diameter wires

  • Prevention of wire breaks

  • Reliable auto-threading
