Product Overview
This Puratronic™ grade cobalt wire offers exceptional purity at 99.995% (metals basis), making it a premium choice for applications where trace impurities can compromise results. The 0.5mm (0.02in) diameter ensures versatility for delicate procedures while maintaining structural integrity. Engineered for consistency, this wire undergoes rigorous quality control to eliminate contaminants, ensuring reliable performance in sensitive environments. Its uniform composition and high thermal conductivity make it suitable for specialized setups where precision is critical. The wire is supplied in two convenient lengths—2m and 50cm—to accommodate both large-scale and small-scale requirements. The Puratronic™ designation guarantees adherence to strict purity standards, making it a trusted material for advanced research and development. Its resistance to oxidation and corrosion further enhances its durability, reducing the risk of degradation over time. Whether used in controlled atmospheres or high-temperature conditions, this cobalt wire delivers stable, repeatable results without introducing unwanted variables.
FAQs
1. What is the maximum temperature this cobalt wire can withstand?
The wire retains structural integrity up to 1,495°C, though prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures may affect its properties.
2. Is this wire compatible with vacuum environments?
Yes, its high purity and low outgassing characteristics make it suitable for vacuum applications.
3. Are there alternatives for applications requiring lower purity?
Standard-grade cobalt wire (99.5% purity) is available for less demanding applications.
4. How should this wire be stored to prevent contamination?
Store in a dry, inert atmosphere or sealed container to avoid oxidation and moisture exposure.
5. Does this wire contain any trace elements?
The remaining 0.005% consists of negligible impurities, primarily other metals, as per Puratronic™ specifications.
