niobium
We provide Niobium which is structurally a sound metal with a high melting point and high resistance to corrosion. It is commonly combined with steel, nickel, cobalt, iron and other metals to create a strong, resistant alloy.
Niobium is one of the top five heats and wear resistors. Niobium alloys are strong and are often used in pipeline construction, jewellery, jet engines, and rockets and in super alloys for heat engines. Niobium metal is generally available in most volumes. Niobium Metal is available as disc, granules, ingot, pieces, powder, rod, sputtering target, wire and are available in numerous other forms and in custom shapes.
We produces many standard grades that are applicable in Mil Spec (military grade); ACS, Reagent and Technical Grade; Food, Agricultural and Pharmaceutical Grade; Optical Grade, USP and EP/BP (European Pharmacopoeia/British Pharmacopoeia) and follows applicable ASTM testing standards.
Strength And Temperature Applications Include:
- Structural beams and girders
- Oil rigs
- Gas pipelines
- Car components
- Fuel tanks and fuel cells
- Jet engines
- Rocket nozzles
- Heat shields
Niobium Sheet and Plate
We supply flats, sheets, plates, strips and foils that are manufactured to high standards ensuring that the material meets your specific requirements, as well as common industrial standards such as ASTM B393 R04210 or the more stringent ASTM B393 R04200 Reactor Grade specification.
Niobium sheet and plate are supplied with a cold-rolled and chemically-cleaned surface because of their strength and workability, very thin sheets of niobium can be covered to other surfaces, providing superior corrosion protection and cost effectiveness. Depending on client’s specifications and needs, all of our niobium sheet and plate are visually inspected for slivers, laminations, excessive roll marks and handling scratches.
Niobium sheet and plate is used in a wide variety of industries that include Industrial Synthetic Diamonds, Superconductor and Supercollider, Thin film coatings for Glass and Fibre Optics, Nuclear Reactor, etc
Niobium Rod, Bar and Wire
Niobium bars and rods are used in a vast array of applications. Some of these uses include sodium vapour lamps, HD television backlighting, capacitors, jewellery and chemical processing equipment. Our manufacturing process includes cold rolling and annealing to produce bars and rods with ideal mechanical properties and uniform grain structures throughout the rod or bar. We supply niobium wire, bar and rod in various grades; each product is custom manufactured to clients unique industry requirements. Our RRR grade niobium bars, rods and billets are commonly used in the production of super conductor wire or in super colliders at major labs and symposiums around the world. Niobium is used in various applications like Niobium and niobium alloyed pipes, bars and wires own a high melting point, corrosion resistance, good cold processing properties and other superb features. They are more and more widely used in chemical, electronic, lighting source, aerospace and other areas.
