Zirconium Pipe Fittings Description
Zirconium (Zr) is a silver metal with a density of 6.52 g/cm3. Zr has a very small neutron absorption cross-section and a relatively high melting point (1855 °C or 3371 °F), making it a great material for nuclear power rods. Zirconium metal and Zirconium alloys have advantages in specialized chemical environments - primarily acetic and hydrochloric acids. The corrosion resistance of Zirconium comes from a tightly adhered oxide that forms almost instantaneously.
Zirconium products also have wide applications in medical equipment, such as zirconium implants. As Zirconium sheets have better mechanical strength under high temperature, it is also used as support and structure components for high-temperature applications.
High-quality Zirconium Pipe Fittings (Zr Pipe Fittings) can be bought at Stanford Advanced Materials (SAM). As a leading supplier of Zirconium Pipe Fittings (Zr Pipe Fittings), SAM enjoys over two decades of experience in the manufacture and sale of Zirconium products, and provides customers with high-quality Zirconium Pipe Fittings (Zr Pipe Fittings) at a very competitive price.

Zirconium Pipe Fittings Applications
1. Chemical industry: In chemical production processes, where highly corrosive chemicals need to be handled, Zirconium Pipe Fittings are preferred for their excellent corrosion resistance. They are commonly used for the connection of chemical reactors, piping systems and storage tanks.
2. Nuclear Energy Industry: Zirconium alloys are one of the most important materials used for fuel rods in nuclear reactors. In the nuclear energy sector, Zirconium Pipe Fittings are used to connect and support fuel rods and other components in nuclear reactors.
3. Medical devices: Zirconium metal is widely used in the manufacture of medical devices due to its biocompatibility and corrosion resistance. Zirconium Pipe Fittings can be used to manufacture medical gas pipelines, drug delivery systems, etc.
4. Marine engineering: Because zirconium metal has good corrosion resistance to seawater, it is also used in marine engineering, such as offshore oil extraction platforms, desalination equipment and so on.
5. Petrochemical: In petrochemical production, Zirconium Pipe Fittings can be used to connect and support various piping systems, especially in high temperature, high pressure or corrosive media environments.
