Zirconium Custom Parts

Zirconium (Zr) is an exceptionally corrosion-resistant metal, offering superior acid corrosion resistance compared to titanium and various steels, and is close to tantalum in performance. It demonstrates excellent resistance to hydrochloric acid at all concentrations and temperatures, even above its boiling point, and is highly resistant to crevice corrosion, pitting, and stress corrosion. Zirconium Custom Parts can be manufactured in terms of size, shape, and performance according to specific customer requirements to ensure optimal performance in a particular working environment.

Zirconium Custom Parts Machining Services

Zirconium Custom Parts require precision machining to meet strict tolerances and performance standards. The machining process involves cutting, shaping, and finishing. The zirconium and its alloys’ high ductility allow us to create complex shapes and designs for specialized applications. HM can offer common machining services as follows:

  • CNC Machining: Precision CNC milling and turning to create complex shapes and intricate features.
  • Wire EDM: Used for cutting delicate and intricate parts with high precision.
  • Surface Grinding: To achieve smooth, flat, and precise surfaces on zirconium parts.
  • Tapping & Threading: For producing threaded holes or custom threads in zirconium parts.
  • Electropolishing: Enhancing the surface finish and corrosion resistance of the final parts.

Zirconium Custom Parts Applications

Zirconium and its alloys are known for their exceptional corrosion resistance, high temperature and oxidation resistance, and excellent nuclear properties. These remarkable characteristics make them widely used in various industries, including:

  • Nuclear energy
  • Aerospace
  • Chemical industry
  • Electronic equipment
  • Marine engineering

Zirconium Custom Parts Packaging

The Zirconium Custom Parts are carefully placed in wooden cases or cartons with additional support from soft materials to prevent any shifting during transportation. This packaging method guarantees the integrity of the products throughout the delivery process.
