Zirconium is a lustrous grey-white metal. Thanks to its ductility and malleability, it can be machined in a variety of ways, to create a wide range of zirconium parts and fittings. These parts are suitable for use in many different industries and they’re available to buy here, at Special Metals.
As part of our metal fabrication services, we currently manufacture and supply:

Simply give us a call to discuss your requirements, tell us about your intended application, and we’ll create zirconium parts that are perfect for you.
What can zirconium parts be used for?
Due to their useful properties (e.g. high melting point, corrosion-resistance etc.), zirconium parts and fittings can be used in a variety of different ways. They’re most commonly employed within the chemistry industry and in nuclear reactors – to create cladding or an outer layer for fuel rods.
Zirconium can also be used as an alloying agent. Parts and fittings are often employed to make high-temperature aerospace parts and, thanks to their low toxicity, they’re commonly used for biomedical applications – such as the creation of dental implants and crowns and hip/knee replacements.
