A zirconium rod is ideal for use in a nuclear power rod because of its small neutron absorption cross-section and the high melting point of 1855°C (3371°F). This silvery metallic element also leads to better wear resistance and hardness of commercial amorphous metals, more commonly known as metallic glass.

Zirconium Rod Specifications

• Multiple sizes are available for zirconium rods and we do make customized products.

Zirconium Rod Applications

Zirconium rods are often used for nuclear fuel components and in-reactor structures in water-cooled reactors as an important nuclear material due to the nuclear properties and corrosion resistance of zirconium. Zirconium rods are mainly used in the manufacture of chemical equipment.
