Molybdenum

Molybdenum Supplier

Specialty Metals

High-purity molybdenum for high-temperature and high-performance industrial applications.

Distefano Consulting provides international sourcing of high-purity molybdenum for companies that require refractory metal with excellent thermal stability, low thermal expansion, and reliable performance under extreme conditions. We connect buyers to qualified manufacturers producing molybdenum in compliance with ASTM B387 and ASTM B386 standards.

Technical Description

Molybdenum is a refractory metal prized for its exceptionally high melting point (2,623 °C), outstanding thermal conductivity, and resistance to corrosion in many aggressive environments. With a minimum purity of 99.95%, our molybdenum products are suitable for the most demanding high-temperature and high-stress applications. The material is available in round bars (diameter 10 mm to 180 mm), rolled sheets (thickness 0.2 mm to 5.0 mm), and plates for larger-scale fabrication. Molybdenum's low coefficient of thermal expansion makes it an ideal choice for precision components in electronics, furnace construction, and aerospace systems where dimensional stability at elevated temperatures is essential.

Grades and Compositions

We supply molybdenum with a minimum purity of 99.95%, ensuring consistent mechanical and thermal properties across all product forms. The high purity grade is essential for applications requiring reliable performance under extreme thermal and mechanical stress, including furnace components, electronic substrates, and alloy additives. Specific alloy grades such as TZM (titanium-zirconium-molybdenum) and Mo-La (lanthanum-doped molybdenum) may be available upon request for enhanced creep resistance or recrystallization performance.
