Our PtIr10 Platinum Iridium Tubes are designed for labs that demand the best. With a purity of 99.95%–99.99%, these tubes offer a melting point of 1800°C, a density of 21.53 g/cm³, and a tensile strength of 382 MPa. Their hardness (130 HV in soft state, up to 200 HV when hardened) ensures they can withstand mechanical stress, while their electrical resistivity of 24.5 µΩ·cm at 20°C supports reliable performance in sensor and electrical applications.

Customization is our specialty. Whether you need a capillary tube with a 0.2 mm outer diameter or a larger tube for a reactor, we can tailor dimensions, wall thicknesses, and lengths to your exact specs. Our manufacturing process adheres to ASTM B684 standards, and every tube undergoes rigorous quality checks to ensure top-notch performance. We package them securely in padded cartons or wooden cases for safe delivery, no matter where you’re located.

The 10% iridium content gives our PtIr10 tubes a strength advantage over pure platinum or lower-iridium alloys like PtIr5. They resist corrosion from harsh chemicals and high temperatures, making them perfect for lab environments where precision and reliability are critical. Compared to stainless steel, our tubes offer superior corrosion resistance and biocompatibility, ensuring they won’t degrade or contaminate sensitive experiments.

Platinum is awesome, but adding 10% iridium takes it to the next level. The iridium boosts strength and wear resistance, making our PtIr10 tubes tougher than pure platinum while maintaining excellent corrosion resistance. Compared to stainless steel, our tubes are far better at handling aggressive chemicals and extreme conditions, which is crucial for lab equipment. While stainless steel is cheaper, it can’t match the precision or longevity of PtIr10 in high-precision applications like analytical instruments or chemical reactors.

Our customization options set us apart. Need a tube with a specific inner diameter for a gas chromatograph? We can do that. Want a particular length for a sensor setup? We’ve got you covered. Our advanced manufacturing techniques, like precision drawing and laser cutting, ensure tight tolerances that meet the strictest lab standards.
