About Ta-2.5W
Ta-2.5W (UNS R05252) tantalum tungsten sheet, plate, bar and tube for acid pressure equipment. Mumbai stockist and exporter, 3.1 MTC, 40+ countries.
Ta-2.5W (UNS R05252) adds 2.5% tungsten to tantalum, raising tensile strength to roughly 310 MPa while keeping the corrosion resistance of unalloyed tantalum essentially unchanged. The extra strength allows thinner walls in pressure-containing acid equipment, reducing the cost of a very expensive metal.
Steelco Metal & Alloys stocks Ta-2.5W (UNS R05252) in Mumbai, India as a stockist, importer and exporter, and ships to 40+ countries. Every dispatch carries EN 10204 3.1 (3.2 on request) mill test certificates, PMI verification and is open to third-party inspection.
