To customize your tantalum ingot, please provide the following details:

  1. Weight & Dimensions (Diameter x Length)
  2. Purity of the material
  3. Chemical composition requirements
  4. Microstructure requirements (e.g., grain size)
  5. Quantity of the ingot you need
  6. Alternatively, you can provide a drawing with your specifications.

Once we have these details, we can provide you with a quote within 24 hours.

We carry a wide variety of tantalum and tantalum alloy products in stock, and for these, there is generally no minimum order requirement. However, for custom orders, we typically set a minimum order value of $200. The lead time for stock items is usually 1-2 weeks, while custom orders usually take 3-4 weeks, depending on the specifics of the order.

DFARS (Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement) compliance is primarily concerned with the sourcing of materials for defense-related applications in the United States. According to DFARS, certain materials used in defense must be sourced from the United States or qualifying countries.

If you have specific tantalum materials that are subject to DFARS, please let us know in advance and we will confirm.

At Shanghai Yuepeng Tech, we take this responsibility seriously. We adhere to all applicable laws and regulations, including Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Act. Our company operates with a strict code of ethics and is committed to only partnering with suppliers who share our dedication to responsible sourcing. We support the initiatives and programs aimed at promoting “conflict-free” supply chains and work diligently to ensure that our products meet these standards.

The tantalum ingot itself is an intermediate product. Its primary use is as a billet that is processed via forging, rolling, etc., into various finished forms like plate, rod, tube, wire, and sputtering target, which are ultimately used in electronics, chemical processing, aerospace, and medical fields.

EBM technology is critical because it operates in an extremely high vacuum and uses a high-energy electron beam to generate intense heat. This effectively removes volatile impurities (e.g., potassium, sodium) and interstitial elements (e.g., oxygen, nitrogen) from the raw tantalum, producing a very high-purity, dense, and high-quality ingot.

Shanghai Yuepeng Tech, established in 2022 in Shanghai, China, is a specialized supplier and manufacturer of tantalum and tantalum alloys. With extensive expertise in supply and export, we offer competitive pricing and customized solutions tailored to specific requirements, ensuring outstanding quality and customer satisfaction. As a professional provider of refractory metals, specialty alloys, spherical powders, and various advanced materials, we serve the research, development, and large-scale industrial production needs of the scientific and industrial sectors.
