Refractory metals
Tungsten, molybdenum, tantalum, niobium, rhenium and zirconium as sheet, rod, wire, tube, powder and forgings.
Melting point, °C
Tungsten
19.25 g/cm³ · 3 grades · Sheet · Plate · Rod
The highest melting point of any metal, the lowest thermal expansion of the refractory metals and high strength at temperature.
Open tungsten →Molybdenum
10.28 g/cm³ · 2 grades · Sheet · Plate · Rod
High melting point, excellent thermal conductivity and strength at temperature, at about half the density of tungsten.
Open molybdenum →Tantalum
16.69 g/cm³ · Sheet · Plate · Rod
Very ductile, with corrosion resistance close to the precious metals.
Open tantalum →Niobium
8.57 g/cm³ · Sheet · Plate · Rod
Soft, ductile and light for a refractory metal, corrosion resistant and superconducting. It forms stable dielectric layers.
Open niobium →Rhenium
21.02 g/cm³ · Sheet · Rod · Wire
The highest elastic modulus of the refractory metals, 420 GPa, and excellent mechanical properties at high temperature.
Open rhenium →Zirconium
6.51 g/cm³ · Sheet · Plate · Rod
Strong corrosion resistance in critical service. Weldable and formable.
Open zirconium →Tungsten carbide
Inserts · Tips · Dies
An extremely hard ceramic, about four times harder than steel. We make wear parts from it to drawing.
