Platinum Rod Applications

  • Industrial Catalysis: Used in catalytic reactions for chemical industries, such as petroleum refining and ammonia oxidation for nitric acid production.
  • Laboratory Equipment: Fabricates high-temperature crucibles, electrodes, and thermocouples for high-temperature experiments and analysis.
  • Electronics Industry: Serves as a reliable electrical contact material or electrode in semiconductor and sensor manufacturing.
  • Medical Applications: Employed in medical implants (e.g., pacemaker electrodes) or dental alloys due to its biocompatibility.
  • Aerospace: Utilized in critical components like nozzles or electrode materials for high-temperature environments.

Platinum Rod Packaging

Platinum Rod is carefully placed in wooden cases or cartons with additional soft materials to support and prevent shifting during transportation. This packaging method guarantees the integrity of the products throughout the delivery process.

We carry a wide variety of platinum products in stock, and for these, there is generally no minimum order requirement. However, for custom orders, we typically set a minimum order value of $200. The lead time for stock items is usually 1-2 weeks, while custom orders usually take 3-4 weeks, depending on the specifics of the order.

DFARS (Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement) compliance is primarily concerned with the sourcing of materials for defense-related applications in the United States. According to DFARS, certain materials used in defense must be sourced from the United States or qualifying countries.

If you have specific platinum materials that are subject to DFARS, please let us know in advance and we will confirm.

At Heeger Metal, we take this responsibility seriously. We adhere to all applicable laws and regulations, including Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Act. Our company operates with a strict code of ethics and is committed to only partnering with suppliers who share our dedication to responsible sourcing. We support the initiatives and programs aimed at promoting “conflict-free” supply chains and work diligently to ensure that our products meet these standards.

We offer 99.95% and 99.99%, both with ICP composition analysis reports.

Yes, we provide turning/milling services for complex shapes (drawings required), surface roughness up to Ra0.8.

Medical grade complies with ISO 13485, includes biocompatibility reports, and requires ultra-polished surfaces.

  • Choose pure Pt for general use
  • Select Pt-Rh (5-10% Rh) for higher strength and temperature resistance (>1000℃)
