Product Introduction

 

Industrial Grade Vanadium Metal is a transition metal utilized as a critical alloying element in advanced metallurgy. It improves tensile strength, toughness, wear resistance, and thermal stability in steel and titanium-based materials.


Produced under vacuum refining conditions, this material features a stable chemical composition with minimized interstitial impurities (Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Carbon). It is engineered for industrial applications where chemical consistency directly affects the mechanical properties of the final alloy.

FAQ

 

Q: What is the difference between Vanadium Metal and Ferrovanadium?

A: Vanadium metal provides higher purity and significantly lower levels of interstitial gases (O, N), which is mandatory for titanium and aerospace-grade alloys. Ferrovanadium is an iron-vanadium master alloy primarily used for standard carbon and structural steel applications.

Q: Can you customize the sizing of the vanadium lumps?

A: Yes. Aside from our standard 10–50 mm and 50–100 mm lumps, we can customize the particle size distribution to match your technical requirements.

Q: What is the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ)?

A: Our standard commercial trial MOQ is 100 kg. For high-purity grades (99.9%+) intended for R&D or laboratory testing, smaller sample quantities can be evaluated upon technical review.

Q: How is the material protected during long-distance shipping?

A: To prevent surface oxidation, the metal is vacuum-sealed in heavy-duty steel drums that are backfilled with dry argon gas, ensuring stable chemical properties upon arrival.

Q: Do you support long-term supply agreements?

A: Yes. We establish long-term supply contracts featuring structured delivery schedules and dedicated inventory buffers to insulate buyers from market supply fluctuations.
