Wai Nickel Alloys, a leading manufacturer and supplier located in Naypyidaw, Myanmar, specializes in high-quality Zirconium Bars that are built to perform exceptionally in tough industrial settings. Renowned for their remarkable resistance to corrosion, particularly against strong acids, these Zirconium Bars find their place in various sectors, including chemical, nuclear, and marine industries. The company guarantees top-notch product quality through cutting-edge metallurgical techniques and rigorous quality control measures. Their Zirconium Bars come in a range of sizes, finishes, and grades to satisfy global engineering needs, ensuring outstanding durability, strength, and reliability in applications where chemical stability and longevity are paramount.
Zirconium Bars typically consist of at least 99.2% zirconium, with small amounts of hafnium (up to 4.5%), oxygen, nitrogen, and iron. They boast a density of 6.51 g/cm³ and a melting point of 1855°C, along with impressive corrosion resistance in most acidic and alkaline environments. On the mechanical side, Zirconium shows a tensile strength ranging from 380 to 550 MPa, a yield strength of about 220 MPa, and an elongation of up to 30%, providing good ductility and formability. It retains high stability and strength even at elevated temperatures, making it ideal for harsh chemical and nuclear conditions.

Zirconium Bars are widely utilized in industries where exceptional corrosion resistance and heat stability are crucial. They are commonly found in chemical processing equipment, heat exchangers, pressure vessels, and reactor components due to their ability to withstand strong acids like hydrochloric and sulfuric acid. In the nuclear sector, Zirconium is essential for fuel rod claddings and structural components because of its low neutron absorption cross-section. Furthermore, it is used in aerospace, medical implants, and marine engineering applications. The combination of high strength, ductility, and reliability makes Zirconium Bars a top choice for demanding environments.
