Wai Nickel Alloys, a well-respected manufacturer and supplier located in Naypyidaw, Myanmar, specializes in top-notch Tantalum Shims that are built to withstand corrosion, heat, and provide precise performance. Crafted from high-purity tantalum and utilizing cutting-edge processing methods, these shims adhere to international quality standards for flatness and mechanical performance. Perfect for environments that face strong acids and high temperatures, Tantalum Shims from Wai Nickel Alloys boast excellent ductility and formability, making them a go-to choice in the chemical processing, electronics, and aerospace sectors. Each product is designed for outstanding reliability, ensuring a long lifespan even in the toughest conditions.
Tantalum Shims are made up of 99.95% pure tantalum (Grades R05200 or R05240), with only trace amounts of impurities like oxygen, carbon, nitrogen, and hydrogen. They feature a tensile strength ranging from 200 to 750 MPa, a density of 16.6 g/cm³, and a melting point of 3017°C. This material is known for its remarkable resistance to corrosion from acids such as nitric, sulfuric, and hydrochloric, along with impressive thermal conductivity and ductility. Tantalum Shims retain their mechanical strength even at high temperatures and are easy to shape and fabricate, making them ideal for precise, high-performance applications in both industrial and electronic fields.
