Using precious metal tubes and rods 

Precious metal tubes and rods both serve as excellent base materials for functional and decorative end products. 

Tubes 

  • Platinum tube: medical equipment, glass, fiberglass and jewelry manufacture and in musical wind instruments. 
  • Platinum-iridium tube: Very thin tubes/needles are widely used as platinum iridium suction needles for cell culture research in hospital laboratories. These platinum alloy needles can be produced in various inner and outer diameter sizes. 
  • Gold tube: medical equipment, chemical processes and geochemistry, aerospace applications (aerospace industry) and jewelry production. 
  • Palladium tube: medical equipment and hydrogen diffusion and production of jewelry. 

Rods 

  • Platinum rods: medical equipment (for pacemakers and parts replacement) and spark plug electrodes. 
  • Platinum-iridium rods: electrodes for medical equipment and glow plug engines for model aircraft. 
  • Gold rods: medical implants for eyes and ears and detection equipment 
  • Iridium staff: automotive applications, gas turbines, aerospace, electrodes and crystal growth applications
