Key Advantages

  • High-temperature strength: Stable performance in high-temp and corrosive environments for long service life.

  • Oxidation & corrosion resistance: Suitable for vacuum, protective atmosphere and demanding furnace conditions.

  • Precision customization: Round, square, hex, rectangle, wire; custom sizes and surface finishes; small-batch sampling supported.

  • Traceable quality: Powder metallurgy route with impurity-controlled grades and full inspection options for critical applications.

Primary Applications

  • High-temp furnaces: Heating elements, output leads, fixtures in sapphire growth, rare-earth and vacuum furnaces.

  • Metallurgy & smelting: Electrodes, fasteners and components in molten metal service (incl. zinc-resistant duty).

  • Electronics & lighting: Electric vacuum parts, gaseous tubes, lamp brackets, silicon rectifier bases.

  • General high-temp structures: Components where high melting point and dimensional stability are essential.

Testing (Typical)

  • Tensile and hardness testing

  • Ultrasonic inspection for internal defects

  • Dimensional verification (diameter, straightness, tolerances)

  • Chemical composition checks (Mo-1 / Mo-2 or ASTM grades)

Packaging & Delivery

  • Packaging: Standard protective wrapping, VCI / anti-corrosion options, and strong wooden cases.

  • Identification: Batch labels with grade, size and heat/lot number for full traceability.

  • Shipping: Global courier or sea freight; delivery aligned with your production schedule.

Product Description

LuminaTitanium supplies high-performance molybdenum rods/bars manufactured to ASTM B387 and related specifications. Using powder metallurgy (hydrostatic compaction, high-temperature sintering) and controlled hot working, our Mo rods offer high strength, oxidation resistance and long service life in high-temperature industrial, metallurgical, lighting and semiconductor applications. Dimensions, grades, shapes and finishes are fully customizable to fit your project.
