Description
🔹 Expert Molybdenum Tube – 99.95% Pure Mo361 Tube
🧾 Product Overview
Our Molybdenum Tube is a high-purity hollow component made from 99.95% pure molybdenum, produced in accordance with ASTM B387 Type 361 for raw material standards. While ASTM B387 covers rods and wires, our tubes are custom-fabricated from the same material to meet the requirements of applications in high-temperature, vacuum, and corrosive environments.
These Mo361 tubes are engineered using advanced processing methods like vacuum arc melting, extrusion, and cold working, offering outstanding thermal stability, dimensional precision, and chemical resistance. Available in custom sizes and wall thicknesses, this molybdenum tubing is ideal for aerospace, vacuum furnace, medical, semiconductor, and chemical industries.

⚙️ Manufacturing Process
The production of our molybdenum tubes follows a series of precise and controlled steps:
- Vacuum Arc Melting (VAM) – Ensures chemical uniformity and low impurities.
- Extrusion & Piercing – Forms seamless tube shapes with uniform wall thickness.
- Cold Working – Enhances strength and grain uniformity.
- Stress Relieving / Annealing – Minimizes internal stress for structural stability.
- Precision Finishing – Achieves required OD, ID, and surface condition.
Each tube features a smooth bore and outer wall, with tight tolerance control for vacuum and high-pressure performance.
