Molybdenum is a refractory metal known for its high melting point, strength and corrosion resistance. It is commonly used in high temperature applications such as the aerospace, defense and electronics industries.
Molybdenum tubing or tubing with one end closed can be used to protect thermocouples in high temperature environments. Molybdenum has excellent high temperature properties and can withstand extreme heat, making it an ideal material for this purpose. The closed ends help protect the thermocouple from harsh conditions while allowing it to accurately measure temperature. These protection tubes can be customized to meet specific thermocouple size and application requirements.
