ASTM A276 and ASTM A479 Tantalum Round Bar Weight, Dimensions Chart in mm, kg, PDF online

Tantalum round bars, also known as tantalum rods, are cylindrical metal bars made of tantalum. Tantalum is a rare, dense, blue-gray metal that is highly resistant to corrosion. It has a high melting point and is good conductor of heat and electricity. These properties make tantalum an ideal material for a wide range of applications, including aerospace, chemical processing, electronics, and medical devices.

Tantalum round bars have many beneficial properties, which are useful in applications.These properties are that they are highly corrosion resistant, have high melting point, good conductor of heat and electricity, biocompatible and non-toxic, and are strong and durable. Different types of tantalum round bars are hot-rolled round bars, cold-drawn round bars, and peeled and polished round bars. Tantalum round bars come in a variety of sizes and diameters to suit different applications. Tantalum round bars are manufactured according to various international standards and specifications to ensure quality and compatibility with the intended application. Common standards include ASTM A276 and ASTM A479. Refer to weight and dimensions chart PDF for tantalum round bar in mm, kg given below.

Tantalum round bar is a versatile material that can be used in a wide range of applications:

  • Semiconductor manufacturing
  • Laboratory benches and equipment
  • Medical devices
  • Heated exchangers
  • Chemical containers, including for transport
  • Aerospace applications
  • Jet turbines
  • Capacitors
