Platinum Wire Property

Precious metal wires are widely used in industry such as resistance thermometers and flammable gas detectors. The specifications of wire can be customized according to customers’ requirements including resistance, temperature coefficient and tensile requirements for ultra-fine precious metal wires.

Pure platinum wire has specialty like high melting point, oxidation resistance, stable chemical properties, etc. It is suitable for processing and manufacturing standard thermocouple platinum materials. Our products of pure platinum wires in various specifications are widely used as industrial platinum resistance thermometer and conduction of precision instrument baseline, etc.

We can make platinum wires diameter from 0.02mm-3.0mm.
