TZM – excellent strength
Titanium-zirconium-molybdenum alloy
TZM is a solid solution hardened and particle reinforced molybdenum alloy; consisting of 0.50% titanium, 0.08% zirconium and 0.01 to 0.04% carbon. It has a higher recrystallisation temperature than molybdenum and has very good strength properties at temperatures up to 1,400 °C. The recrystallisation temperature of TZM is approx. 250 °C higher than that of molybdenum. In addition, TZM offers better weldability and is also readily formable at room temperature.

Our TZM alloys are available as semi-finished products, near-net-shape or as finished parts. When providing semi-finished products, we are not bound by the usual standard dimensions. Already during the project planning, we define cost-optimised dimensions with you so as to keep product costs as low as possible. Our delivery spectrum includes:
- TZM bars
- TZM blocks & sheets
- TZM wires
- Custom-made products
FAQs
TZM alloys are mainly used in areas where materials have to withstand high temperatures: for example, for machine components, heating conductors, electrodes, light engineering wires, sintering boats, furnace internals, forging tools, X-ray technology, radiation shields and many other applications.
