Zirconium tubes for nuclear reactions
Zirconium tubing is ideal for the nuclear industry due to its excellent thermal properties.
These products also have low neutron absorption capabilities and are therefore used in the construction of nuclear reactors.
These cargoes include control rods and cladding, coolant channels, containment tubes and other equipment in radioactive situations.
However, in the nuclear power field, low-hafnium grade zirconium tubes must be selected.
Typically, we use Zr-702 and Zr-704 because of their resistance to high steam temperatures and huge yield stress.
