Tantalum Bar & Tantalum Rod Description

Tantalum bar and tantalum rod are made of tantalum ingots. Tantalum bars and rods can be used in the chemical industry and oil industries due to their corrosion resistance. SAM is a trusted supplier of tantalum rods & bars and we can provide customized tantalum products. SAM’s tantalum rod is worked cold from ingot to final diameter. Forging, rolling, swaging, and drawing are used singularly or in combination to reach the desired size.
Ta rods and Ta bars are mainly used as high-temperature alloys containing tantalum, tantalum-based heat-resistant, and corrosion-resistant alloy additives.

Tantalum Bar & Tantalum Rod Applications

1. Electronics industry: Due to its high melting point, low vapor pressure and good electrical properties, tantalum is widely used in the manufacture of electronic equipment such as vacuum tubes, transistors, integrated circuits and electronic connectors.

2. Aerospace industry: Due to its high strength, low density and good high-temperature performance, Tantalum is often used in the aerospace industry to manufacture structural components for aircraft and rockets as well as parts for high-temperature furnaces.

3. Medical field: Due to its biocompatibility and corrosion resistance, Tantalum is widely used in the medical field for the manufacture of medical implants, such as hip and knee implants, dental implants and cardiovascular devices.

4. Chemical and petroleum industry: Tantalum is resistant to corrosion by most acids and alkalis and is therefore used in the manufacture of chemical reaction vessels, pipes, valves and pumps. In the oil industry, Tantalum is also used to manufacture oil drilling equipment and pipework.

5. High-temperature industry: In addition to the above applications, Tantalum is also used in the manufacture of furnace tubes for high-temperature furnaces, crucibles, thermocouple protection tubes and metalworking tools.
