Tantalum Tungsten Foil
Product Tantalum Tungsten Foil/Strip (Ta-W Foil/Ta Strip)
Part Number TRM-TA015
Standard ASTM B708 UNS R05252/UNS R05255
Assay Ta97.5W2.5 or Ta90W10
Density 16.9 g/cm3

Tantalum tungsten alloy(Ta-W alloy) is typically tantalum 2.5% Tungsten and tantalum 10% Tungsten of high density 16.90 g/cc. It has good high-temperature mechanical properties, high density, high strength, good toughness and strong stiffness. In addition, tantalum tungsten alloy Foil/Strip has excellent corrosion resistance especially in acids, and it has better corrosion resistance than pure tantalum. We can offer a wide variety of dimensions.

Application: Tantalum tungsten foil/strip is used for chemical process equipment including heating and cooling coils, heat exchange, condensers, reaction vessels, leaf springs and bellows.

Thermostability 93%
Machinability 81%
Corrosion Resistance 92%
