Core Advantages
High-Purity Materials for Critical Applications
We use zirconium materials with purity above 99.5%, suitable for highly demanding industries such as nuclear power and chemical processing. This ensures consistent performance under extreme conditions.
Strict Quality Control from Start to Finish
Every step of our production process—from raw material inspection to final testing—is governed by stringent quality protocols. All products are delivered with Mill Test Certificates and comply with ASTM and ISO standards.
Advanced Processing Capabilities
Our facility supports forging, rolling, welding, deep drawing, and CNC machining for zirconium, allowing us to handle complex shapes and tight tolerances with precision.
Customization for Special Needs
We manufacture zirconium parts according to your drawings and specifications, including tailored thicknesses, diameters, and surface finishes for specialized industrial uses.
Zirconium Product production process
Material Sourcing – High-purity zirconium sponge or ingots selected and verified.
Vacuum Arc Melting (VAR) – Ensures purity, homogeneity, and structural integrity.
Hot Forging & Rolling – Converted into sheets, rods, or billets with controlled grain structures.
Cold Working & Annealing – Achieves precise dimensions and desired mechanical properties.
CNC Machining / Custom Forming – Final shaping to meet customer specifications.
Final Inspection & Packing – Every item undergoes rigorous tests before protective packaging and shipment.
Zirconium Product Quality Testing
X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) & ICP Analysis
We utilize XRF and Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) spectroscopy to verify the chemical composition and elemental purity of zirconium materials. These methods help ensure compliance with ASTM specifications and confirm the absence of harmful impurities, which is crucial for nuclear and chemical-grade applications.
Mechanical Properties Testing
Tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, and hardness are tested according to standardized procedures. These mechanical tests confirm that the zirconium products can perform reliably under stress, pressure, and high-temperature environments, especially in aerospace and structural applications.
Intergranular Corrosion & Nondestructive Testing (NDT)
To assess long-term durability, we conduct intergranular corrosion tests that evaluate the resistance of zirconium to acid attack in grain boundaries. Additionally, nondestructive testing methods like ultrasonic inspection ensure there are no hidden internal flaws, cracks, or delaminations in sheets, rods, or finished parts.
Frequently Asked Questions
What zirconium grades do you supply?
We primarily supply Zr702 (commercially pure) and Zr705 (alloyed), both ideal for corrosion-resistant and structural applications.
Is zirconium suitable for medical or nuclear use?
Yes. Zr702 is biocompatible and commonly used in medical implants, while both Zr702 and Zr705 are qualified for nuclear applications.
How do you ensure the quality of zirconium products?
We conduct full chemical analysis, mechanical testing, and surface inspections in compliance with ASTM standards and provide Mill Test Certificates.
Can I order custom zirconium components?
What’s your typical lead time for zirconium orders?
Standard products: 7–15 working days. Custom components: depending on complexity, usually within 3–4 weeks.
