Description

Niobium Sheets, Foils, and Strips are made from niobium, a lustrous gray transition metal with various applications in different industries. They are available in multiple sizes, thicknesses, and purities and can be customized according to specific application requirements. Being a material capable of withstanding high temperatures and corrosive environments, Niobium Sheets, Foil, and Strips are frequently employed in industrial diamond production, deep drawing applications, the chemical industry, and the medical field. Moreover, niobium is utilized in crafting colored jewelry. We offer a bright surface finish that is ideal for applications involving anodizing.

With different thicknesses, we name the Niobium Sheets differently. Foil: 0.03~0.09mm, Strip: 0.03~0.09mm, Sheet: 0.1~0.5mm; Plate: 0.5~10mm and Over.
