Seamless Molybdenum Tubing
An excellent product for thermocouple sheaths, molybdenum tubing is an excellent choice when elevated temperatures are a factor. A broad spectrum of applications may also be found in the electrical, electronic, semiconductor and medical industries. All tube products may be ordered with either a centerless ground or an “as-drawn” surface. Our core group of products is focused on OD’s from .090” to .375”, with additional sizes available upon request. Standard sizes are shown below. Tubes are now available in our new low carbon arc cast molybdenum.

Applications
Rhenium Alloys provides high quality, competitively priced molybdenum tubing used in:
  • Thermocouple sheaths
  • Semiconductor manufacture
  • Electronic applications
  • Mercury switch contacts
  • And a variety of other uses


Its low vapor pressure and high melting point make it an outstanding material for: Electronic tubes, Cathodes, Anodes, Grids and Supports.
