Rhenium Wire
Rhenium wire is used to manufacture filaments for mass spectrometers, ion gauges, and medical applications. Rhenium has the third-highest melting point and highest boiling point of any element. The major use of rhenium is for the jet engine, and the chemical industry's catalytic is second most important.
We provide a wide range of wire products to serve applications in major electronics products, thermocouples, high-temperature furnace parts, and welding requirements. Our Rhenium wire has 99.99% purity, high strength and excellent ductility. Molybdenum-47.5%-Rhenium wire is used in welding, electronics, and wire mesh grids for the space industries. Tungsten-Rhenium wire is a staple in thermocouples and electronics products. Tungsten wire is widely used for thermocouples, electronic devices, and lighting with its very high tensile strength even at a very small diameter. Rhenium wire compositions are available in a full range of sizes (as small as .008") to meet customers' requirements.
