Cable Technology at Its Best
The combination of select materials and our patented process1 for braiding wires into multi-filament cable gives Dall-Miles cables remarkable ductility and the right balance of fatigue stength and tensile strength.
Our patented manufacturing processes are based on test results showing a trade-off in cable fatigue performance that comes with excessive cable tensile strength. With Dall-Miles, Howmedica Osteonics has perfected a production method of relieving stress on the high tensile wire to reduce its tensile strength (thereby increasing its fatigue strength), and another method to cold work fully annealed wire to an optimum level of cold reduction for maximum fatigue and tensile strengths.
