Molybdenum rods are widely applied for heating elements in high-temperature furnaces, electrodes, screws, rabbles in rare earth smelting industry, heating electrodes in glass industry and support of lamp in the lighting industry, etc.

Production process of Molybdenum rod

Materials -- CIP -- IF induction sintering -- forging—annealing -- mechanical processing -- Molybdenum rod

Production equipments

Cool isostatic pressing machine(CIP), IF induction sintering furnace, forging machine, coreless grinder ,CNC vertical turning machine, wire cutting machine

Application of Molybdenum rod

Since the density is 10.2 g/cm3,and the melting point has reached 2640^oC, Molybdenum rods with high temperature resistance and high creep resistance often used in high-temperature furnace, vacuum furnace, and sapphire crystal furnace. Molybdenum added rare earth or TZM added Titanium, Zirconium, C elements has a higher recrystallization temperature and better high temperature creep resistance, it is  widely used in aerospace, military weapons, etc.

We can provide molybdenum bars and rods that made with molybdenum powder which purity is 99.95%. After sintering and forging, the density of molybdenum rod basically comes close to molybdenum’s theory density, so they have a good high-temperature strength and electrochemical corrosion resistance.

Specification:
1.We produce pure and lanthanide doped molybdenum alloy rod;
2.Molybdenum rod can be divided into 2 kinds: Forging molybdenum rod allows to have oxidized film and slight forging hammer mark; the surface of polished molybdenum rod presents metallic luster and has no-oxidized phenomenon notably; the two surfaces have no defects, such as divided layer, crackle, burr and vertical crackle, etc.
3.Molybdenum rod is manufactured in random length pieces or cut to customers' desired lengths with diameters ranging from 0.20 inches to 1.75 inches.

Features:
1.The density of our molybdenum rods from 9.8g/cm3 to 10.1g/cm3; The smaller diameter is,the density is higher.
2.Its purity is higher than 99.95%;
3.Molybdenum rod possesses features with high hot hardness, high thermal conductivity, and low thermal expansion to hot work steels;
4.It is a silvery-white, hard, transition metal, which has the eighth-highest melting point of any element;
5.Molybdenum rod burns only at temperatures above 600 °C (1,112 °F);
6.It has the lowest heating expansion of any commercially used metal.
