Description
Tantalum rods are rod-shaped products made from tantalum or tantalum-tungsten alloys, commonly supplied in polished finish. Available grades include Ta1 and Ta2, manufactured according to ASTM B365, GB/T26012-2010, or Beijing Oriental Color Tantalum-Niobium enterprise standards.
Key Features:
High density: ≥16.6 g/cm³
High melting point: ~3000 °C
Excellent corrosion resistance
Polished surface finish
Customizable dimensions: from Φ0.15 × L, per customer requirements
Applications
Tantalum rods are widely used across multiple industries:
Chemical industry: Digesters, heaters, coolers, and corrosion-resistant vessels
Vacuum and high-temperature applications: Blast furnace heating parts, insulation components, and charging
vessels
Aerospace & Aviation: Components exposed to extreme heat or corrosive environments
Medical equipment: Devices requiring chemical resistance and biocompatibility
