    Ultra-High-Temperature Molybdenum Wire

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Molybdenum. Ultra-High-Temperature Molybdenum Wire, Spool.

    Spool

    Able to handle high melting points and conduct heat and electricity, this 99.95% pure molybdenum wire is often used in lights to create a support for filaments. It resists oxidation and won’t corrode. Molybdenum is better at conducting heat and electricity than tantalum and platinum, which also have high melting points. It is not, however, as corrosion resistant.

    Hold and heat coating material to extremely high temperatures for use in high-vacuum thin film coating processes. Also known as physical vapor deposition (PVD), thin film coating creates micron-thin, consistently smooth finishes on knobs, mirrors, and other objects.
    These boats are designed for use with metal coating hooks and pellets. Hang a hook of coating material on a wire coil or place pellets of material in a basket or in a bowl.
    A boat's material and thickness determine the amount of electricity required to heat it. In general, the thicker the boat, the greater the amount of electricity needed to heat it. As a reference, required current describes what is necessary to heat these boats to a given temperature. Exact values will depend on your application.
