Materials · One Supplier, Six Material Classes
The Right Material for Your Application
From pure metal to engineered composite — every material class backed by technical consultation, certification and delivery scaled to your order quantity.
Molybdenum
Pure, TZM, MHC, Mo-Cu, Mo-La
Lighter than tungsten, with excellent machinability. The preferred choice for sputtering targets, glass-melting components and high-temperature furnaces.
Rhenium
Pure, W-Re and Mo-Re alloys
One of the rarest industrial metals. Outstanding high-temperature strength and ductility — for engine blades and thermocouples.
Tantalum / Niobium
Ta, Nb, Ta-W alloys
Excellent corrosion resistance and very good formability. In demand for chemical process equipment, capacitors and superconductors.
Ceramics
Boron nitride, metal-ceramic forms
Electrically insulating, yet able to withstand extreme heat. As a moulded part or substrate wherever metal would conduct — and shouldn't.
Composites
Coatings, AM powders, CMC
Tailored combinations of properties — from thermal spray coatings to powders for additive manufacturing.
