Zirconium spring, along with other zirconium products, is highly resistant to corrosion, making it ideal for use with most all acids. Zirconium spring can also act as soldering spring for other zirconium materials and can be applied to springs, meshes, and electrodes. Zirconium spring also aids the elements used within the medical field, like in zirconium implants.
Our zirconium spring is carefully handled to minimize damage during storage and transportation and to preserve the quality of our products in their original condition.
