| Material Summary: | ||||
| Molybdenum is a high density low expansion material with 2600 °C melting points. Its properties make it ideal for use as filaments and glass coating in high temperature applications like aircraft engines. Elan 19 glass can create a matched hermetic seal with a molybdenum pin or housing. Other applications include combining Molybdenum pins with Stainless Steel housings for compression sealing. | ||||
