Tungsten is resistant to certain molten metals and metal oxides. Tungsten Crucible is widely used in technologies for growing monocrystals from molten corundum, it is also used in electronics and technologies for thermal vaporization-deposition of various substances.
We offer a wide range of tungsten (W) and molybdenum (Mo) crucibles, including round, tapered, square, rectangular, and custom-shaped designs, along with matching lids. Tungsten crucibles are particularly valued in monocrystal growth processes, such as corundum (sapphire) production, as well as in thermal vaporization and deposition technologies. Their high melting point, resistance to molten metals and oxides, and low contamination make them essential components in high-temperature furnaces.
Both pure tungsten and molybdenum crucibles are ideal for applications like sapphire crystal growth and rare-earth metal melting, thanks to their exceptional heat resistance, durability, and performance in demanding environments. Custom designs are also available to meet specific requirements.

Tungsten Crucibles have been widely used in technologies for growing single crystals from molten corundum, as well as in electronics and technologies for thermal vaporization - deposition of various substances.
Metallurgical and Casting Industries: Used for melting and refining metals like gold, platinum, and other precious metals, as tungsten can withstand temperatures up to 3,422°C (6,192°F).
Semiconductor Manufacturing: Employed in processes like chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and physical vapor deposition (PVD) for creating thin films and semiconductor devices.
High-Temperature Furnaces: Used in research and industrial furnaces that operate at extremely high temperatures, often for material testing, sintering, and crystal growth.
Nuclear Applications: Utilized in nuclear reactors and other radiation-sensitive environments for its ability to resist thermal shock and corrosion.
Vacuum and Space Applications: In the aerospace industry, tungsten crucibles are used in the production of high-performance alloys and materials that require a vacuum environment.
Manufacturing of High-Performance Ceramics: They serve as containers for high-purity ceramic materials in the manufacturing of products like semiconductors and electronic components.
Our Tungsten Crucibles are clearly tagged and labeled externally to ensure efficient identification and quality control. Great care is taken to avoid any damage which might be caused during storage or transportation.
