Platinum Iridium Alloy Rod Description
The Platinum Iridium Alloy Rod is a high-performance material
composed of 90% platinum and 10% iridium. This alloy combines the excellent
corrosion resistance and durability of platinum with the high temperature
strength and hardness of iridium. It is commonly used in precision instruments,
electrical contacts, thermocouples, and other critical applications that
require high resistance to wear and extreme conditions. Platinum Iridium Alloy
Rods are also known for their high melting point and stability, making them
ideal for aerospace and scientific applications.
