Tantalum Tungsten Rod & Tantalum Tungsten Bar Description
Tantalum Tungsten Alloy Rods and Bars are extremely strong and hard and are able to withstand extreme pressure and impact, making them ideal for components and structures that are subjected to high loads. Tantalum tungsten alloys maintain their good mechanical properties and chemical stability at high temperatures and do not soften or deform due to high temperatures, which gives them excellent performance in high temperature environments. Tantalum-tungsten alloys show excellent resistance to a wide range of chemicals and corrosive media, and are able to keep their performance stable for a long time in harsh corrosive environments. This alloy material has excellent performance in electrical and thermal conductivity, making it potentially valuable for applications in electronics, electric power and heat conduction.
