Product Introduction
Description
High-purity zirconium tubes are made from metal zirconium. Due to zirconium's excellent nuclear and corrosion resistance, zirconium tubes are often used for nuclear reactor components such as control rods and cladding, coolant channels, seal tubes, as crucial nuclear materials for nuclear fuel components and internal structures in water-cooled reactors, and other equipment intended for use in a radioactive environment. Pure zirconium tubes and rods are also used to manufacture chemical equipment,
including:
-Heat exchangers
-Chemical and biological reactors
-Condensers
-Corrosive fluid transmission pipeline systems
-Offshore aquaculture as they are expensive and have limited usage.

We also provide zirconium complementary products for heat exchanger applications.
Our zirconium tube series also includes nuclear fuel pipes, which is one of the many products we provide for applications in the nuclear power field.
Zirconium has a wide range of applications, mainly in the form of zirconium silicate and zirconia, in ceramics, refractory materials, and other fields. Only 3% -4% of zirconium ore is processed into metallic zirconium (or sponge zirconium), which is further processed into various zirconium materials. Due to its small thermal neutron absorption cross-section, metallic zirconium has excellent nuclear performance.
Nuclear-grade zirconium is used as a structural material for nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, nuclear submarines, and civilian power reactors, as well as for the cladding of uranium fuel elements. Nuclear-grade zirconium can be considered an important strategic metal for the country, closely related to the development of the nuclear industry.
High purity zirconium tubes are used in acid and alkali-resistant chemical equipment, the military industry, and the electronics industry is called industrial-grade zirconium. From the aspects of processing difficulty, technological level, and technological content, metal zirconium and its alloy products are at the top of the industry chain.
Industrial grade zirconium
Industrial-grade zirconium is mainly used in the production of acid and alkali-resistant equipment in the chemical industry, military industry, electronics industry, pipeline valve materials, special high-strength and high-temperature alloy materials, and vacuum and lighting bulb industries as air absorbers.
Zirconium alloy pipes more details:
Zirconium Alloy 702 Seamless Pipe is also said to be resistant to heat and moisture. It displays higher tensile and yield strength due to its higher ductility. It has a longer life as compared to other materials. Zirconium tube manufacturers recommend these tubes as they are considered to be cost-saving when compared to other pipes provided they are well maintained. Zirconium UNS R60702 Pipe also helps in eliminating downtime due to mechanical failure. It is also said to be good conduction of heat with excellent welding properties and high heat transferability.
Inspection: UT, Eddy Current Testing, Water Pressure Testing, Air Tightness Testing.
Applications: Heat exchangers, container linings, valves, pump casings, blades, agitators, conduits, etc.; Zirconium is also used in many chemical plants that produce fertilizers, resins, plastics, and acids.
