This silvery-white metal has several advantageous properties over other metals. It has an incredibly high melting point and exceptional thermal and electrical conductivity. Its strong yet ductile nature allows it to be transformed into various metal parts, suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
In this guide, we explore the main types of metal parts and fittings made from molybdenum, highlighting their key applications and uses.
Wrought Products Manufactured with Molybdenum
Molybdenum Sheets
Molybdenum sheets are typically less than 0.1 inches thick and can have either a matte or shiny finish. They maintain their strength and integrity at high temperatures, making them ideal for manufacturing lighting parts, heating elements, plasma sprayers, and rocket nozzles.
Molybdenum Plates
Molybdenum plates are similar to sheets but are smaller and thicker, with an average thickness of 0.1-3 inches. They exhibit the same qualities as the basic element and are often used as "blanks" for creating more complex parts later.
Molybdenum Bars
Molybdenum bars come in various lengths and thicknesses. Thick bars are commonly used in furnaces for heating elements, conductors, radiation screens, and sintering trays, while thin bars are used in electrical lighting and glass-making sectors.
Molybdenum Rods
Molybdenum rods are the most versatile type of molybdenum part, available in any length or diameter with a range of end shapes like tips, plateaus, bevels, chamfers, and grooves. They serve as base components for more sophisticated parts and can be adapted into other wrought products.
Molybdenum Wire
Molybdenum wire is created by stretching a molybdenum rod and is usually 0.18-3 mm in diameter. It is used in high-heat and high-pressure applications such as aerospace engineering, military technology, missile and rocket components, plasma sprayers, and furnace electronics.
