Description:

Tungsten wire is a high-performance refractory metal filament manufactured through precision drawing processes, offering the highest melting point (3,422°C) of all pure metals. Available in diameters from 5μm to 3.0mm, it is engineered for extreme thermal and electrical applications.

Ultra-High Temperature Resistance: Operates effectively up to 3,000°C
Exceptional Tensile Strength: Maintains integrity under mechanical stress
Low Vapor Pressure: Ideal for vacuum environments
Excellent Creep Resistance: Minimal deformation at elevated temperatures
High Electrical Conductivity: Superior to most refractory metals
