【Know Molybdenum】The Applications of TZM Alloy

1.What does TZM stand for?

TZM stands for Titanium-Zirconium-Molybdenum.

2.What is TZM?

TZM alloy is a popular molybdenum-based alloy containing ±0.08% zirconium, ±0.5% titanium, ±0.03% carbon and molybdenum makes up the balance. By combining small amounts of Ti and Zi, TZM moly alloy gains a high recrystallization temperature and consequently yields a higher strength in high temperature. 

3.TZM Alloy Properties

Creep Resistance

High Tensile Strength

Good Machinability

High Recrystallization Temperature

Corrosion Resistance

Good Weldability

4.TZM Alloy Applications

1. In the furnace and in heat-treating structural components such as shielding and supporting parts. 

2. Making high temperature and high strength TZM moly forging dies for isothermal forging, non-ferrous and ferrous metals casting and molybdenum TZM piercing plugs.

3. As a weldable and high-recrystallization temperature material used to produce molybdenum TZM rocket nozzle and TZM hot gas valve for the aerospace application.
