Tantalum Wire Mesh
Tantalum wire mesh is a type of wire cloth made from a rare and hard metal found mainly in Australia and North America. It is often used in corrosive or high-temperature environments due to its ability to resist wear, oxidation and chemical corrosion. Its strength and durability make it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications such as filter and strainers, shielding and heat exchange.

Tantalum Wire Mesh is made of pure tantalum wire or tantalum alloy wire. Due to its excellent characteristics with the amazing corrosion resistance, very heavy, ductile and hardness. Tantalum is especially resistant to chemicals at temperatures below 150 °C and can only be dissolved with hydrofluoric acid. It has the fourth-highest melting point of all metals and is able to form extremely thin and protective oxide layers, making it an excellent material for wire mesh. Our tantalum wire mesh has stabilized filtering characteristics and is woven by tantalum wire.
Tianguan Mesh specializes in producing custom compositions for commercial and research applications and for new proprietary technologies. Tianguan Mesh also casts any of the rare earth metals and most other precious materials into rod, bar, or plate form, as well as other machined shapes. We also produce Tantalum as powder, ingot, pieces, powder, and rod. Other shapes are available by request.
