Platinum Wire
- Hardness: Rockwell B97 (Medium)
Use this 99.95% pure platinum wire to create thermocouple probes and other parts that maintain high accuracy in extreme conditions. It won’t oxidize, won’t corrode in most settings, and has low thermal and electrical resistance. Platinum is often used to make O-rings, even for high-vacuum applications, because it’s soft enough to form a good seal when pressed between two flanges, yet won’t damage the flanges so you can reuse them. It’s also useful with high temperatures since it has a higher melting point than other sealing materials, such as gold.

Platinum Foil
- Hardness: Rockwell B97 (Medium)
Thin and easy to cut, use this 99.5% pure platinum foil in labs and electronics production. It won’t oxidize, won’t corrode in most environments, and has low thermal and electrical resistance. Platinum is often used to make gaskets, even in high-vacuum applications, because it’s soft enough to create a good seal when pressed between two flanges, but won’t damage the flanges so you can reuse them. It also works for high temperatures because it has a higher melting point than gold and other sealing materials.
