TZM alloy (Titanium-Zirconium-Molybdenum) is a high-performance, molybdenum (Mo)-based alloy enhanced with titanium (Ti), zirconium (Zr), and trace carbon (C). Its unique composition and manufacturing via powder metallurgy or vacuum melting processes grant it superior high-temperature strength, creep resistance, and recrystallization stability compared to pure molybdenum. It is widely used in extreme high-temperature and high-stress environments.

A: TZM provides significantly higher recrystallization temperature and tensile strength due to its Ti, Zr, and C alloying elements.
A: It maintains structural integrity well above 1400°C depending on the application environment.
A: While harder than steel, it is more processable than pure molybdenum and can be shaped via CNC/EDM methods.
A: Yes, it shows excellent resistance to molten zinc and glass, making it ideal for die-casting molds.
A: Yes, we support machined parts based on specific customer drawings and technical requirements.
