Molybdenum Boat

Molybdenum boats made from molybdenum sheet by riveting, welding, folding or stamping — with stable resistance, high-temperature strength and resistance to deformation. Used for vacuum thermal evaporation, coating, capacitor and nuclear-fuel sintering. Available in rectangular, square, trapezoidal, semicircular, hexagonal and boat shapes — all custom to your drawing.
