Application and Prospect of Molybdenum Screws
Molybdenum screws are a kind of high-strength fasteners made of molybdenum alloy. It has the advantages of high strength, corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance and low magnetic permeability, so it is widely used in the industrial field. This article will explore the application and prospects of molybdenum screws, and introduce its advantages and disadvantages.
Classification and application of molybdenum screws
Molybdenum screws can be divided into standard, reinforced and special types. Standard molybdenum screws are generally used to fasten steel structures, such as bridges, power plant boilers, etc. Reinforced molybdenum screws are used to withstand greater loads, such as the fastening of large steel structures. Special molybdenum screws are used in special occasions, such as high temperature, corrosion, nuclear radiation and other environments.
In the industrial field, 99.95% Pure molybdenum screws are widely used in petrochemical, electric power, aerospace, shipbuilding, automobile manufacturing and other fields. For example, in the field of petrochemical, molybdenum screws are used to manufacture fasteners for pipelines and equipment; in the field of electric power, molybdenum screws are used to fasten high-voltage transmission lines; in the field of aerospace, molybdenum screws are used as fasteners for aircraft and rockets.
Advantages of Molybdenum Screws
Molybdenum screws have the following advantages:
High strength: Molybdenum screws are stronger than ordinary steel screws and can withstand greater loads.
Corrosion resistance: The surface treatment of molybdenum screws can prevent corrosion and have a longer service life.
High temperature resistance: Molybdenum screws can be used in high temperature environments, and their operating temperature can reach 600℃.
Low magnetic permeability: Molybdenum screws have lower magnetic permeability and can replace steel screws in some occasions where magnetic interference needs to be avoided.
Disadvantages of Molybdenum Screws
Molybdenum screws also have the following disadvantages:
Higher price: Due to the higher material cost of molybdenum screws, their price is usually higher than that of steel screws.
Greater brittleness: Compared with steel screws, molybdenum screws have poorer toughness and are prone to brittle fracture.
Sensitive to harsh environments: Molybdenum screws are susceptible to corrosion and high temperature softening when used in harsh environments.
Molybdenum screws have many advantages, but there are also some disadvantages. In some industrial fields that require high strength, corrosion resistance, and high temperature resistance, molybdenum screws are an ideal choice. With the continuous development of science and technology, higher-strength, lower-cost, and easier-to-process fastener materials may be developed in the future, but molybdenum screws are still an indispensable fastener material.
