Product Line: Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) Ceramic Rods Material System: 3Y-TZP High-Purity Zirconia with Permanent Color Additives Manufacturing Process: Cold Isostatic Pressing (CIP), Precision Grinding, Superfinishing Quality Standards: ISO 9001, REACH/RoHS Compliant, FDA-Grade Available
Our color-coded zirconia ceramic rods utilize identical high-performance yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) material across all color variations, ensuring consistent mechanical properties while enabling visual identification for streamlined inventory management and error-proof assembly. This intelligent color system allows purchasing departments to consolidate SKUs while providing engineering teams with application-specific traceability.
Exceptional Wear Resistance: 30x lifespan vs. hardened steel in abrasive environments
Zero Corrosion: Inert to acids, alkalis, and organic solvents
Thermal Shock Resistance: Rapid cycling from 20°C to 800°C without failure
Dimensional Stability: ±0.001mm tolerance capability after precision grinding
Low Friction Coefficient: 0.15-0.20, reducing energy consumption in moving assemblies
Non-Conductive & Non-Magnetic: Ideal for electronics and MRI-compatible equipment
